Ok, here's what I did. I adapted the instructions from this comment: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/telepathy-mission- control-5/+bug/816554/comments/4
adding "owner /var/jay/.local/share/telepathy*/ rw," and the like to my /etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.telepathy file, then running: sudo apparmor_parser -r /etc/apparmor.d/usr.lib.telepathy Empathy is now successfully saving logs, even though @{HOME}/.local/share/telepathy*/ is a symlink to /var/jay/.local/share/telepathy*/ Is it the symlinking that is causing this problem? I assume that it is. Why does apparmor balk at this symlink? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to empathy in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/874671 Title: Empathy doesn't remember favorites, chat logs when ~/.local is a symlink To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/empathy/+bug/874671/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
