I’ve used Remmina for a long time and have last used it about two days ago. I updated my system last night, which I do roughly once a month, and now Remmina fails and segfaults.
A log shows this:
Remmina connection profile cannot be saved, with error 4 (Failed to create file “/home/user/.cache/remmina/remmina.pref.state.VIS322”: No such file or directory)
/home/user/.cache
is owned by root:root
for some reason and contains a tb
folder:

I suspect an update within the past month, installed by me last night, caused this. I haven’t done any modification between two nights ago and now that could potentially have caused this.
This is a DispVM based on Qubes-Whonix Workstation 17.
In the template, the /home/user/.cache
folder is owned by user:user
and empty. It appears that the permissions are changing due to some process executed when the VM starts?
