Description of problem:
running sudo /usr/sbin/sysreport failes with "Cannot make temp dir"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
sysreport-1.4.3-10.el5

How reproducible:
Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. login into a system using a network account (NIS, krb5, ldap, ADS, ...) that has no local home directory
2. run sysreport as root using sudo
3.

Actual Results:
$ sudo /usr/sbin/sysreport
Password:
Cannot make temp dir


Expected Results:
sysreport generated

Additional info:
the problem is that sysreport relies on the HOME environment pointing to a home directory that can be written into to create a temporary directory.

the use of /tmp or ${TMPDIR} should be used instead
