Crash if /etc/bubblejail does not exists.

Description

STR

• Install bubblejail in a way that /etc/bubblejail is not exacted.
  • I build my own rpm for it. Presumably there is a step in the rpmbuild tools chain that removes empty directories. Maybe filling it with an example or a short README is a good idea.
• Start bubblejail-config and click on "Create instance"

Expected behaviour

1. Does not crash because of a missing directory.
2. Does not crash when it fails to create a system directory (if running as regular user).

Hello @rusty-snake

The issue is that if a profiles directory is missing bubblejail will try to recreate it. This was first added when there only was user config directory (under ~/.config) but later a system wide configuration directory was added. This is normally not an issue because the /etc directory exists on most installs but I guess Fedora strips empty directories.

Should be fixed in 75c24c3060f53ab27fbac65c0bb3d9ca6b911bdf. The missing directories should now be skipped. Can you give it a try?

Works, Thanks.
