Bug Description
Binary package hint: kile
Kubuntu 8.04 with all upgrades.
The same problem concerns Kubuntu 8.10 with all upgrades.
In both cases: clean install, but the /home was on a separate partition so the user configuration files are from the older versions of Ubuntu.
When starting kile from the command line, it starts fine, but generates the following message:
kile: ERROR: Could not create symlink: /home/user/
kile: ERROR: Could not create symlink: /home/user/
And indeed, the symlinks are not created. In this way it is not possible to collaborate directly with jabref since these symlinks are essential for this purpose.
Hi,
does creating the directory "~/.lyx" by yourself before starting kile help?
