[Bug 653022] Re: software-center crashed with IOError in write()

[Matthew Paul Thomas]

Thanks for reporting this error, and we're sorry we didn't get to it
earlier.

The code has changed a lot since your report. So it's quite likely this
problem has been fixed anyway, and Ubuntu Software Center will be better
off if engineers spend their time on problems that people have been
reporting more recently. If you still do experience the problem, please
reopen this report and provide exact steps to reproduce it. Thanks for
your understanding.

Title:
  software-center crashed with IOError in write()

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: software-center

  I got this error after closing the software-center. It seems that the
  ownership of ~/.config/software-center changed to root, so I don't
  have permissions to write.
