A possible fix is to write the log file to /var/log/usb-creator.log instead of ~/.usb_creator.log if the user is root.
The fix is easy, in usbcreator/backend.py:28-29 replace with: log_file = '/var/log/usb-creator.log' I've attached the modified file. I couldn't figure out how to generate a patch quickly. The Code tab in launchpad let me download a .tar.gz, so you're getting a modified file. Sorry for the inconvenience. ** Attachment added: "patched backend.py" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/28725240/backend.py -- usb-creator does not work when $HOME is on NFS https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/295172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
