Bug Description

Binary package hint: screenlets

Hi,
     this bug is similar to the others, I think.

One note I would like to add is that the screenlet manager, in order to create screenlets, make a dir named /tmp/screenlets.

If you have more than one user into your system, this will create a problem, since that dir is owned by the user that launched it first - and the other users cannot use the screenlets.
