Hi All,
I'm a developer who needs to test my code on multiple distribution. Right now the tests run on Scientific Linux 6 & 7 (RHEL derivative), Debian 7 (soon 8), and Ubuntu 12.04 and 14.04. Plus I sometimes get reports it doesn't build on distros I never heard of.
I wonder if it's wise to share a single home directory. Multiple systems will be running at one time, some bare metal, some VMs.
I'm worried about all the configurations and state that apps store in $HOME.
I suppose to be safe I can put all my stuff in a subdirectory of ${HOME} and share that but I wonder if anyone has tried this and can confirm it works or it doesn't.
Thanks,
Joe
