Having a home folder in a flatpak package

[Malte Deiseroth]

Sry for polluting the mailing list, but I'm a little desperate. I'm trying
to learn how to build a flatpak package and went through the Introduction
and most of the documentation.

I want to build a flatpak around a java binary I have no control over. The
binary must be installed. Thus I use a build command like:

"build-commands": [
                "./binary.bin /path/to/install/to"
]

The java env is working fine, however the binary *only* allows to install
into a path that starts with /home/....
How can I make this work? As passing /app/bin as path, like in the
tutorial, wont work.
Obviously I don't really want it to install into the home folder, but just
somewhere into the package itself. Thus I would need a way to create a
temporary home folder, link between the new home and the /app folder and
hopefully it will work.

All my best
Malte
