Binary package hint: mame

/etc/mame/mame.ini contains paths pointing to the user's home directory
for many settings, but not for the inipath, which tells mame where to
find its .ini files. This is a pity, as it prevents the user from
changing important graphics settings in ~/.mame.

Please can this be fixed?

It's a simple matter of changing the line in /etc/mame/mame.ini that
currently reads

inipath                   /etc/mame

to

inipath                   $HOME/.mame;/etc/mame
