Title:
Empathy doesn't remember favorites, chat logs when ~/.local is a
symlink
Status in “empathy” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
After upgrading to Oneiric, all of my Empathy favorites have been
forgotten. Setting them again doesn't survive a logout/login cycle.
I now think this may be due to the fact that I keep my
/home/jay/.local directory as a symlink to /var/jay/.local on my SSD
(and the same with ~/.cache). This didn't used to be a problem in
Natty, so I don't know what changed.
syslog shows these messages when I try to add a favorite or when i
send/receive a message, respectively:
Oct 27 20:09:56 jay-desktop kernel: [112564.420709] type=1400

pid=5324 comm="telepathy-logge" requested_mask="c" denied_mask="c"
fsuid=1000 ouid=1000
I changed some permissions on the folders in /var/jay/.local (and
applied to sub-folders, probably an awful idea) and the problem
remained.
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?
