How can I avoid system /tmp to be used when combining singularity and conda?
------------------------------------------------------

When using both singularity and conda the idea is that inside the singularity container the conda environment is being installed.
Some singularity instances are set to share the system /tmp with the containers.
This can lead to unexpected behaviour where the system /tmp gets full.
To stop this behaviour you'd have to run singularity with the ``--contain`` option.
