https://github.com/rear/rear/commit/c09ee23e5dc715257374853c31631b7c587d0b8c#diff-532b94edb5ec6bb42f46ddcd1755c799194465edee68613dae5bf1c753542239R193 (rear 27) seems to make ineffective TMPDIR inside rear configuration, eg. /etc/rear/local.conf. However:

$ grep -R TMPDIR /usr/share/rear/conf/examples/
/usr/share/rear/conf/examples/rescue-and-backup-on-same-ISO-image-example.conf:TMPDIR=/mnt2/tmp

It seems TMPDIR should be changed to TMP_DIR here.

$ rpm -q rear27a
rear27a-2.7-150500.3.3.1.x86_64

This was already fixed in GitHub master code

@jirib

in general I recommend to try out our latest GitHub master code
because the GitHub master code is the only place where we fix things
and if there are issues it helps when you use exactly the code
where we could fix things.

See the section
"Testing current ReaR upstream GitHub master code" in
https://en.opensuse.org/SDB:Disaster_Recovery
how you can try out our current ReaR GitHub master code
without conflicts with your already installed ReaR version.
