It's completely reproducible if you use sbuild (it happens when
rebuilding on my machine).

The important difference is that sbuild sets HOME=/sbuild-nonexistent - see
the "User Environment":

I'm not very familiar with cowbuilder, but if there's a way to set
environment variables for the build with it, try setting HOME to a
non-existent directory.  Or add this near the start of debian/rules:

export HOME=/sbuild-nonexistent

A simple fix is probably to create a temporary directory and point
HOME to it while running tests.  That should fix the build with sbuild
and is much better for reproducible tests than using someone's actual
home directory.
