[Python-modules-team] Bug#711803: python-concurrent.futures: FTBFS: Permission denied

[Paul Tagliamonte]

Source: python-concurrent.futures
Version: 2.1.2-1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source

The package FTBFS in a clean unstable amd64 sbuild chroot. This is
likely due to the lack of a home directory.
