btcd still tries to create its defaultHomeDir even if it does not needed-

btcd/config.go

Line 68 in 01f26a1

defaultHomeDir = btcutil.AppDataDir("btcd", false)

It is not needed when all writeable params (logs and data) and redirected to other location. Creates problems when packing btcd into containers.

Another solution is to allow setting BTCDHOME.
