Please don't try to write anything to $HOME.
The problem is not actually one of writing to /home; it is that the file pdftex.fmt is missing, due to specifying a build-dep on texlive-base-bin which should actually have been texlive-base. fmtutil just looks in $HOME when it can't find the system-wide file (I assume). A 0.5.1 upload fixing this is imminent.
