AFAIK, tilde expansion is entirely up to your shell rather than Python (unless you use something like `os.path.expanduser` in your own program). A few debugging questions: 1) What version of what shell(s) do you have on each system? 2) What value do you get from `TESTVAR=~/test python3 -c 'import os;print(os.environ["TESTVAR"])'` on each system? Is it the same as `TESTVAR=~/test printenv \| grep TESTVAR`? 3) What results do you get from the same tests as above, but with `TESTVAR='~/test'`?
