#7837 Replace os.getenv('HOME') with os.path.expanduser
Closed: fixed by rcritten. Opened by cheimes.

Closed: fixed
Reopen Issue

On several occasions IPA uses HOME env var. The env var may not be available. Some platforms use a different environment variable, too. The correct way to get the home directory of the current user is os.path.expanduser
