Status in LottaNZB • Automated Usenet Client: Fix Released

Bug description:
Reported by Marcel de Vries:

"LottaNZB 0.5 fails to start. It can't find ~/.local/share/lottanzb. Creating the directories fixes it.

According to Synaptic I'm running LottaNZB 0.5-1. If I remove lottanzb from ~/.local/share/ it starts flawless. But if I remove either ~/.local or ~/.local/share it doesn't.

As you can see it does output ~/.local/share/lottanzb and that is what I saw. But it's just ~/.local and ~/.local/share."
