Description

When running run_test_suite --tmpdir ~/foo, the libvirt storage is still set up with /tmp/TailsToaster/TailsToasterStorage, which is not created, so it fails with

Call to virStoragePoolCreate failed: cannot open directory '/tmp/TailsToaster/TailsToasterStorage': No such file or directory (Guestfs::Error)

According to kibi, setting $TMPDIR instead should work.

Maybe --tmpdir and $TMPDIR should yield 100% identical behavior? I see that --tmpdir already defaults to $TMPDIR if that one is set.
