Creating the .config folder and file works fine (for me anyway). Think there may be some confusion as to the pathing - the .config folder SHOULD be /home/username/,config ----- but, it's NOT. The command //.config, at least in my case, is referring to a non-existent folder - specifically /.config (yes - off the root directory). Of course, the folder doesn't exist and even if it did, in it's location we wouldn't have access to it.
Simple to "fix", but a bit clumsy terminal - sudo su or whatever you gotta do to get root cd / mkdir .config cd .config touch debconf-kde-helperrc cd / chown -hR username .config Inelegant, but whatever, it works. I've avoided too much command line trickery as that's always a bit confusing for some folks (myself included - just getting back into linux after years away, gotta say it's AMAZING). Anyway, be looking into the root cause of this issue as time allows, but until then, it's working without error and the file doesn't seem to get written to anyway (still 0 bytes) Cheers -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Studio Bugs, which is subscribed to kde-runtime in Ubuntu.
