Does it expect a writable directory for the user 'root' home directory then?
That may be the difference, you normally have yours re-directed to a writable file system - - Other people may not have that modification. Just guessing here, but maybe . . . . . |

yeah. something about the HOME env_var it is not honouring probably. will dig later.
most people will possibly find it in /tmp/root/blah.conf (or w/e the regular people live) EDIT: I could just emit the local config file to the right location at startup and forget about it... In the short term. Last edited by twobob; 09-19-2013 at 08:56 AM. |

I can happily shove a
cp /mnt/us/extensions/galculator/.config/galculator/galculator.conf ~/.config/galculator/galculator.conf in the script... as I mentioned before. |

mkdir -p ~/.config/galculator;
cp /mnt/us/extensions/galculator/.config/galculator/galculator.conf ~/.config/galculator/galculator.conf seem to work just fine. (I edited the first conf and it did indeed honour the copy...) want that in the startup script? suppose it can't hurt... |

b) if it's /tmp/root (the default), then it's writable, but will disappear after a reboot. That's why just copying stuff there is the easiest solution. |

What Ixxy said.
Also... since you are likely to be making EDITS to the /mnt/us/extensions/galculator/.config/galculator/galculator.conf I would have to run a diff or something to determine whether or not to copy it across... |

Looking into galculator source I noticed that you can set a custom location for a config file by setting GALCULATOR_CONFIG variable.
