[Bug 874671] Re: Empathy doesn't remember favorites, chat logs when ~/.local is a symlink
I see the no chat logs problem - I haven't tried favourites. My .local is a symlink, but to the same drive. I set XDG_DATA_HOME=/home/phil/local/share, but some apps don't respect that so I have .local = local linked. I'm using the same home dir as I had on 10.10, and my logs just stop the day I installed 11.10. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to 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 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 874671] Re: Empathy doesn't remember favorites, chat logs when ~/.local is a symlink
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?
