Public bug reported: I create a new directory to save the download ubuntuimages. so that each user could use the same image without download it by each user.
When I try to create a new emulator, it will download the ubuntuimages. sudo ubuntu-emulator create ubuntu --arch=i386 --channel=ubuntu-touch /ubuntu-rtm/14.09 After that I create a directory '/home/emulator/' and change the permission so that everyone can visit. Then change the environment like below. export XDG_CACHE_HOME /home/emulator/ After that when I create a new emulator called ubuntu2, I found it will download the same ubuntuimages again in .cache/ubuntuimages/ sudo ubuntu-emulator create ubuntu2 --arch=i386 --channel=ubuntu-touch /ubuntu-rtm/14.09 Thanks! ** Affects: phablet-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1394855 Title: XDG_CACHE_HOME can't work for create new emulator To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/phablet-tools/+bug/1394855/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
