mindi did "rm -Rf /home" ?! (Debian)

[mnalis-ml@…]

The system in question has /tmp as tmpfs which might have been a problem-trigger (judging by suspicious mindi message "Changing TMP_ROOT to /home because you're using tmpfs for tmp"). The log also mentions that I'm using LABEL (which I do) without tools to support it (however, I do have /sbin/findfs (from e2fsprogs-1.37-2sarge1 package) and /sbin/blkid (from libblkid1-1.37-2sarge1 package). I do not have vol_id, though (but if I understand correctly, it only needs ONE of those programs).
