Just this, very weird things happen when applications cannot use this directory :) The only file there is ~/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf

I have experienced the same when I did a full KDE install. This caused several errors to be thrown on first boot.

Just out of curiosity, did you do a UEFI install with Gummiboot?

mattchewie commented 9 years ago

My GNOME install just finished. I can confirm that the .config in my home directory is correctly owned by the "user". So this looks like it might be an issue tied to non-gnome installs? I will try a XFCE install in a VM tomorrow to see if I get the same outcome as the KDE install.

@lots0logs : If I understand correctly, this is a minimal ISO issue, isn't it? Also KDE installation seems to be affected by this.

FYI : XFCE install also as the correct permissions

This has been fixed in dev, not sure on policy on closing/commenting/testing so just leaving a comment here.

We need to backport the fix into stable.

i can confirm that as of today the bare installation STILL SUFFERS from the fact that .config is owned by ROOT. Users get error messages thrown by Spotify. Each time re-login. Variety wallpapers settings. Thunar Settings... etc. Any program that wants to write there, will sometimes give an error or just say nothing but all your settings are not saved.
