According to bug #129289 as of version 0.5.8, apt supports TMPDIR for
determining where apt-extracttemplates puts its temporary files.
So the solution is to provide a separate directory as
APT::ExtractTemplates::TempDir which is accessible by root only
and mounted with exec. You can replace /var/tmp/apt by whatever
directory you provide for root apt temporary files.
cat > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/00tmpdir <<EOF
APT {
ExtractTemplates {
TempDir "/var/tmp/apt";
}
}
DPkg {
Pre-Invoke {
"mkdir -m 0700 -p /var/tmp/apt";
}
}
EOF
