Incorrect user home directory location (HMS-11218)

[onesaladleaf]

When building a raw bootc-based image and adding a user via blueprint customization the home directory is being created in /ostree/deploy/default/var/home/user, and not in /var/home/user. The user itself is created and I can log in with an error about a missing home directory

The blueprint used:

[[customizations.user]]
name = "user"
password = "123456"
groups = ["wheel"]

Build log: image-builder.log

bootc can use multiple backends, which container are you using as the input, is it Fedora based?

[onesaladleaf]

Yes, Fedora

A simple fedora-bootc based reproducer:
