abssorb is still having a problem:
Hi Adam,

Many thanks for the detailed reply.  You are correct, I can't determine
why, but ownership of the config file has somehow changed to root.
qpdfview was installed long before December 21.  I've fixed it but I
thought I'd let you know.

~/.config/qpdfview$ ls -l
total 16K
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mark rdl   112 Jan 26 13:27 pdf-plugin.conf
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mark rdl    54 Jan 26 13:27 ps-plugin.conf
-rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 3.4K Dec 21 12:44 qpdfview.conf
-rw-rw-r-- 1 mark rdl  1.4K Jan 26 13:27 shortcuts.conf


Kind regards, Mark.
