Tomboy crash on deleting a note

[Natim]

Binary package hint: tomboy

When I delete a note, tomboy crash. It shouldn't crash, more over, it should explain that "Access to the path is denied" and also witch one !

How to solve it ?

Catch the System.Reflection.TargetInvocationException in the Tomboy.NoteManager.Delete method and display an error message with the absolute path from which the access is denied.

Here is the traceback :

One way of fixing this bug, was to

sudo chown ${USER}:${USER} -R ~/.local/share/tomboy/

Why did you not own your note files? Had you copied your notes over from another system and not made sure you had write permissions on them?
