One thing which occurred to me, and I cannot see why this will be so, but I
thought of permissions on your files. Do this….

>  ls -l ~/.config/darktable/watermarks/*.svg

and you should see something to the effect of

>  -rw-rw-??- 1 $USER1 $USER2 ??????? MM DD YYYY
> /home/$USER1/.config/darktable/watermarks/MyWatermark.svg


First off, $USER1 and $USER2 would normally be the same thing. (If it is
not, that does not mean that something is wrong; just that something is
unusual, and that might be a problem).
Second, $USER1 ought to be your Linux login username. (If it is not, then
something is probably wrong).
Finally, depending on what $USER1 and $USER2 are, the lines ought to start
with one of,
-rw-r----- …
-rw-rw---- …
-rw-r--r-- …
-rw-rw-rw- …
If it does not, then we may have an idea of where to start.

So tell us what you see when you type the command, and we can possibly go
from there.
(If what you see is one of the four above listed patterns, and
$USER1==$USER2, then I am still stumped, but it may still help to know).
