[Bug 82213] Re: kmenuedit: unable to create new menu entries

[Ulrich Lukas]

I'm glad I can report: This issue is resolved.

I was able to find out what was causing this behaviour: A third-party
installer script (which was run as root) changed the ownership of
several subfolders under ~/.local/share/ to "root", and thus, there was
no write access any more.

This had nothing to do with Ubuntu.

Thank you all the same, Ulrich
