Patch #6374 contains a --tempdir blurb for the man page:

While double-checking the precedence of the switch and the variable, I 
noticed that environment variables are not being handled properly on my 
development workstation.  I reported this as Bug #22021:

https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?22021

The duplicity-0.4.6 release is the last that honors the TMPDIR, TEMP, 
and TMP environment variables on my Ubuntu Gutsy sandbox.
