Description Michael Opdenacker 2021-11-12 17:39:17 UTC 
Quoting a comment from Richard Purdie (https://lists.yoctoproject.org/g/docs/message/2100):
"The reference in cache.py is poor
coding and we should really try and remove that. Regardless, TMPDIR is not an
bitbake variable."

Patch out for testing which drops this (and the surrounding code)
