Follow-up Comment #1, bug #53515 (project octave):
This primarily affects Ubuntu and Mint users. Ubuntu has sudo configured to
keep the user's HOME directory by default. If you use "sudo -H" you shouldn't
have this problem.
Users on other distros would have to use "sudo env HOME=$HOME ..." to emulate
the Ubuntu behavior.
