Hmm.. The original behavior of pbuilder was to set $HOME to random place, but it's changed because that's a POSIX requirement. Making $HOME point to some read-only place might be better. pbuilder (0.50) unstable; urgency=low * set HOME to /tmp/buildd (closes: #170762) thanks: Clint Adams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- Junichi Uekawa <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Wed, 27 Nov 2002 11:21:18 +0900 regards, junichi -- [EMAIL PROTECTED],netfort.gr.jp} Debian Project -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
