** Description changed:

  After upgrading to Oneiric, all of my Empathy favorites have been
  forgotten. Setting them again doesn't survive a logout/login cycle.
+ 
+ I now think this may be due to the fact that I keep my /home/jay/.local
+ directory as a symlink to /var/jay/.local on my SSD. This didn't used to
+ be a problem in Natty, so I don't know what changed.
+ 
+ syslog shows these messages when I try to add a favorite or when i
+ send/receive a message, respectively:
