Package: how-can-i-help
Version: 9
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

how-can-i-help is normally run through apt with sudo but creates some
cache files in my home dir. Later running how-can-i-help as user
resulted in an error:
| $ how-can-i-help
| ======  How can you help?  (doc: https://wiki.debian.org/how-can-i-help ) 
======
|
| -----  Show old opportunities as well as new ones: how-can-i-help --old  -----
| /usr/bin/how-can-i-help:292:in `initialize': Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - 
/home/julien/.cache/how-can-i-help/seen.json (Errno::EACCES)
|         from /usr/bin/how-can-i-help:292:in `open'
|         from /usr/bin/how-can-i-help:292:in `<main>'

how-can-i-help --old works (and is more useful in that case) but the
first idea is just to type how-can-i-help :)

Changing ownerchip of files just work, but is seams strange to have to
do that since the .cache/ directory contains other files that seams
related to apt but are not owned by root (apt-file/ or axi-cache.state).

Hope this can help us helping debian :)

Best regards
