Bug Description
Hi, I am using the latest version of QLE on Ubuntu 13.10 64bit. The application does not even start. Starting it from the command line prints the following:
tryfon@

Hi Tryfon, share/applicati ons does not exist, it creates the directory, or it tries to in your case. It looks like you have no permission in your own home directory to create the directory, which is very strange, and you should have a lot of other applications that experience problems with that. Could you check if the directory ~/.local/ share/applicati ons exists, and who is the owner of it? If it is root, could you change it to your name?
first of all, thank you for your bug report, I really appreciate the fact that you take the effort.
About the case: when the editor starts up, it looks if all the necessary directories exist. If the directory ~/.local/
Thsi will probably solve the problem, could you let me know?
