Vincent Massol commented on CONTINUUM-784:
------------------------------------------

Brett, there are indeed 2 separate problems:

* the need for a tmp location that outlive a build session. This means that the 
solution of setting the java.io.tmpdir to the build target dir will not work. 
In the case of cargo this the installation of containers that are automatically 
downloaded from the web. You don't want the build to have to download and 
install 200 MB of containers at every run. The build run would take forever.

* the issue I have on that continuum machine. I believe there's a permission 
issue that prevents creating files in the /tmp directory and thus failing the 
Cargo build. I sent an email on the continuum list about this and I believe 
it's better to continue discussing that there. This issue should be about how 
to handle project that require access to the tmp dir.

Thanks.
