Bug Description

lib/canonical/buildd/tests/harness.py line 117:
        os.environ['HOME'] = self.root

alters global state. This should have a matching
self.addCleanup
to restore the original environment variable. Or better yet the HOME should only be exported to the child process, not -ever- altered in the main test process.
