I found a workaround for this problem:

1. sudo apt-get install gconf-editor (or search in Software Center)
2. fire it up and change /apps/comorama/preferences/save_dir from 
"~/Webcam_Pictures" to "Webcam_Pictures"

So this is just a simple typo in the camorama.schemas.in from the source
package. I hope some developer knows where to report or fix that.
