Description:

An error warning appears when the game tries to create the configuration directory while it's loading, the warning says:

Starting lincity-ng (version 2.0)...
Unexpected exception: Failed creating configuration directory '/home/user/.lincity-ng': unsupported

The only way to make it work is to create the directory "~/.lincity-ng" manually.

Apparentlly this error has already happened before, here is more information about the problem: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/linux.debian.bugs.dist/SGDVSwAWDYQ

Additional info:
* package version: 2.0-8

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install the game.
2. Delete the directory "~/.lincity-ng" if it exists.
3. Run the game.

Reason for closing:  Won't fix
Additional comments about closing:  This looks like upstream issue. I won't be doing any post-install changes in users $HOME therefore, not much I can do here until upstream fixes the trouble.
Creating the directory manually will have to suffice till then.
