Hi Marc. I apologize for not mentioning a release type. It's Xubuntu 16.04 LTS. For now, I have no access to my other computer with Ubuntu 16.04 LTS so I can not verify this issue. Sorry.
Is it a problem, that incorrect permission - in this case - are in Xubuntu and not in Ubuntu? Will it be fixed? Thanks and I apologize once again. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of DX Packages, which is subscribed to d-conf in Ubuntu.

I select only default options + [Ubuntu Desktop] installation. What you expected to happen: My home folder contains the following folders with correct and safe permissions after the first login: drwx------ 11 user user 4096 Dec 2 17:40 .config drwx------ 3 user user 4096 Dec 2 17:39 .local What happened instead: I received these folders after the first login: drwxr-xr-x 11 user user 4096 Dec 2 17:40 .config drwxr-xr-x 3 user user 4096 Dec 2 17:39 .local It is not safe. Any user can access to my .config folders and read for example my mail databases I'm trying to create a new user...: sudo useradd -m user2 sudo passwd user2 ... and login then. It has the same problem: drwxr-xr-x 10 user2 user2 4096 Dec 2 19:44 .config drwxr-xr-x 3 user2 user2 4096 Dec 2 19:44 .local To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/dconf/+bug/1735929/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages Post to : dx-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
