Public bug reported: At present, the Ubuntu Desktop for Raspberry Pi images are failing to build [1] [2] with an apparent out of space issue. Although this appears to occur *after* the rootfs has been allocated, it appears the file- system image is sparse and thus doesn't take much space until it is actually populated.
ubuntu-image (which is the tool used to build these images) defaults to using /tmp as its working directory. This is now a tmpfs mount on plucky, and thus of extremely limited space (at least compared to the persistent storage). We should specify --workdir to avoid /tmp.
