Bug#483079: libgnome2-0: libgnome doesn't honour $HOME

[Mike Hommey]

Package: libgnome2-0
Version: 2.20.1.1-1
Severity: important

Everything is in the subject: libgnome doesn't honour $HOME. Even
better, it does exit(1) if it fails to create ~/.gnome2, which can
happen if the getpwent home doesn't exist (which would be a valid
reason to set $HOME).

This makes xulrunner testcases fail during builds on buildds.

PS: I will workaround this by setting GNOME22_USER_DIR, though.
