I installed flatpak and one application. I have now removed both flatpak and that application, and I'm getting this message for AFAICS whenever I start a GUI application (for example, meld
or pluma
):
dconf-WARNING **: 18:37:20.153: Unable to open /home/user/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share/dconf/profile/user: Permission denied
I'm using a fresh install of Ubuntu Mate 18.04 and I don't remember seeing this before.
ls -l ~/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share/dconf/profile/user
and document the result and then do asudo chown $USER:$USER ~/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share/dconf/profile/user
and see if that fixes it.~/.local/share/flatpak
was owned byroot
. (Maybe as a result ofsudo flatpak install
.. Is that wrong?) I simply deleted the folder (withsudo
) and the issue is gone.
