This *.sls works nicely:

```
configure `rc.local` to remove any present `QubesIncoming`:
  file.replace:
    - name: /rw/config/rc.local
    - pattern: '^rm -rf /home/user/QubesIncoming$'
    - repl: 'rm -rf /home/user/QubesIncoming'
    - append_if_not_found: True 

configure `rc.local` to create `/tmp/QubesIncoming`:
  file.replace:
    - name: /rw/config/rc.local
    - pattern: '^install -d -o user -g user -m 770 /tmp/QubesIncoming$'
    - repl: 'install -d -o user -g user -m 770 /tmp/QubesIncoming'
    - append_if_not_found: True 

configure `rc.local` to link `/tmp/QubesIncoming` to $HOME:
  file.replace:
    - name: /rw/config/rc.local
    - pattern: '^ln -s /tmp/QubesIncoming /home/user/QubesIncoming$'
    - repl: 'ln -s /tmp/QubesIncoming /home/user/QubesIncoming'
    - append_if_not_found: True 

configure `rc.local` to properly chown the link:
  file.replace:
    - name: /rw/config/rc.local
    - pattern: '^chown -h user:user /home/user/QubesIncoming$'
    - repl: 'chown -h user:user /home/user/QubesIncoming'
    - append_if_not_found: True 
```

It generates this code block in `/rw/config/rc.local`:

```
rm -rf /home/user/QubesIncoming
install -d -o user -g user -m 770 /tmp/QubesIncoming
ln -s /tmp/QubesIncoming /home/user/QubesIncoming
chown -h user:user /home/user/QubesIncoming
```
