TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'str'

[toabctl]

We use spec-cleaner in the OpenStack packaging project and when running it in a tox env, I get:

TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'NoneType' and 'str'

Hmm why the HOME env is not actually propagated in your environment? Shouldn't this be done by the passenv= for the tox?

Could you try this commit?

@scarabeusiv we have passenv = * , so probadly in @toabctl env is $HOME unset

This should be fixed in 0.9.3.
