Comment 4 for bug 1815546

I'm puzzled by this bug. When I use python to create a temporary directory within a directory pointed to by a symlink on my system, it first follows the symlink and then creates the temp dir, which is exactly the behavior I expect. In your case, for some reason it has not done that. Instead, it has created a temporary directory in your home directory. That is unexpected. Is there some kind of permission issue at play here, such as a mount folder being owned by root and not your user?
