Public bug reported:
First, why I launched this in root ? Because I needed it. I had done
some experiments with file permissions (To see how gtg would react), and
finally launched this in root.
It just changed my /tmp permissions.
This is a big issue because in GNOME this make it impossible to login
in graphical mode. (/usr/lib/libgconf2-4/gconf-sanity-check-2 exited
with error status 256).
I know they arn't any reasons a normal dev would launch this in sth
else than normal user, but there's also no problem to don't accept root
execution.
I'll try to add a patch, but I'm not very good in bash.
** Affects: gtg
Importance: Undecided
