IOError in write_access_token on Ubuntu Lucid

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. sudo apt-get install python-gdata
2. wget http://googlecl.googlecode.com/files/googlecl_0.9.10-1_all.deb
3. dpkg -i googlecl_0.9.10-1_all.deb
4. mkdir /root/.config
5. google docs list title,url-direct --delimiter ": "
6. Enter username
7. Enter username and password in w3m
8. After redirecting a few times, w3m shows "The page you requested is 
invalid". Quit w3m.
9. Now we can see the authentication URL. Visit it in Firefox on a computer 
with GUI.
10. Click "Grant Access".
11. Google says "You have successfully granted GoogleCL root@ubuntu access to 
your Google Account. You can revoke access at any time under 'My Account'. ". 
Go back to the command line, hit Enter.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

The error message:
$ google docs list title,url-direct --delimiter ": "
Did not find config / preferences file at /root/.config/googlecl/config
... making new one.
Please specify user: ********
Please log in and/or grant access via your browser at 
https://www.google.com/accounts/OAuthAuthorizeToken?oauth_token=********&hd=defa
ult then hit enter.

This would solve the problem:

mkdir -p /root/.local/share/

But now I get a different problem:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/google", line 676, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/google", line 662, in main
    run_once(options, args)
  File "/usr/bin/google", line 504, in run_once
    task.run(client, options, args)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/googlecl/docs/base.py", line 485, in _run_list
    delimiter=options.delimiter)
  File "/usr/lib/pymodules/python2.6/googlecl/base.py", line 603, in compile_entry_string
    return_string += val.replace(delimiter, ' ') + delimiter

• Changed state: Fixed

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I've attached a patch that will fix this without using a mkdir command from the 
terminal.

P.S. the other error you're running into is Issue 279. I've just posted a patch 
for it in the issue tracker, so give that a shot. Thanks!
