[Bug 864764] Re: empath forgets accounts 11.10

 

Hi Muhammad,

Yes, the bug is reproducable.

Steps to reproduce:
- unmount the home-directory structure (umount /home)
- change the mount point of the home-directory to (for example) /differenthome
- remove the old mount point of the home-directory (rm /home)
- create the new mount point (mkdir /differenthome)
- create a symlink (ln -s /differenthome /home)
- mount the home-directory (mount /differenthome)
- logout and login again
- start empathy, add accounts
- logout and login again
- start empathy, the accounts are gone

This bug can be solved by adding the real home-directory
(/differenthome) to the apparmor config file. This is perfectly
described in the comment of Lapse of Reason.

Kind Regards,
Marco van der Heide

P.S. I forgot to thank you Lapse of Reason! But hereby a BIG THANKYOU!
