iusing $unshare_tmpdir_template = '/var/tmp/tmp.sbuild.XXXXXXXXXX'; in
the sbuild configuration, one can avoid a /tmp overflow if /tmp is a
tmpfs. This is especially important since trixie where /tmp is tmpfs by
default.
This is not honored if the chroot needs to be built, mmdebstrap still
happily fills up /tmp (and then terminates with a VERY misleading error
message).
I think the better option is to use:
$ TMPDIR=/var/tmp sbuild ...
This will put all temporary files below /var/tmp, also for piuparts
and autopkgtest since version 0.91.5.
But that cannot be put in configuration and then forgotten, it needs to
be remembered every time. Or a wrapper needs to be written and used.
