[Bug 1576414] [NEW] tried do-release-upgrade --sandbox --data-dir=/home/thomas/sandbox

[Thomas Barbier]

Public bug reported:

Description:	Ubuntu 15.10
Release:	15.10


I wanted to test a Release upgrade in sandbox on a different fodler than /tmp
So I though I could use the options --sandbox --data-dir=/home/thomas/sandbox
But it turn out it didn;t work, in fact it even crashed the do-release-upgrade

My command is probably wrong but it would be better to exit nicely
rather than crash :-P

Cheers
Thomas
