phablet-test-run creates a temp directory called (oddly) /tmp/phablet-run-test/ to push .deb files to when specified by the -c option. Unfortunately it uses exec_with_adb to do this which creates the directory as root. Then it uses adb push to copy the file which files with a permissions error. Creating the directory and copying the file don't require root so this should be done with exec_with_adb_user instead.
