[Debian GNUstep maintainers] Bug#355570: Writes to user directory during buildd

[Stephen R Marenka]

Package: gworkspace
Version: 0.7.0-1.1
Severity: important


gworkspace writes to the buildd user's directory duing a buildd. It's 
not supposed to be doing that.

Here are selected excerpts from the buildd log.
