The chroot does contain a @file{/home} directory, and the @env{HOME}
|

environment variable is set to the non-existent
|

@file{/homeless-shelter}. This helps to highlight inappropriate uses of
|

@env{HOME} in the build scripts of packages.

You can influence the directory where the daemon stores build trees
|
||||
