This bug/request is essentially the same as #1087378 for sbuild in which
I requested that the configuration file was moved out of $HOME and into
$HOME/.config/devscripts/ f.e. to unclutter my $HOME and make it much
easier to put things under version control.
A move to $HOME/.config/devscripts/ would be sufficient for me, but as
$HOME/.config is the default location for XDG_CONFIG_HOME, you'd get
bonus points for full support of XDG BDS.
Cheers,
Diederik
