Well, i've solved it by manually creating the 'medit' directory under /home/~username/.local/share/ , restart medit and after that it could successfuly save the config file.
The strange thing is that i couldn't create the directory by right- clicking in the specified path from nautilus' context-menu !!! I clicked on the 'New Directory here' menu-item but nothing happened. Seems like an Ubuntu Hardy trouble with the default permissions setting for that folder (others too maybe) or something like that. Beat me, i don't know why that is so, but it is. Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 has got quite a handful of pretty little bugs around. Off-the-topic, i've noticed same trouble in saving configuration files/options with the Fonts tab from the System > Preferences > Appearance menu: it wouldn't change the font anti-aliasing schema. -- can't save config file https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/212433 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
