[Bug 1349087] Re: emacs C-x m doesn't work

[Paul White]

Four years on I'm marking this as being invalid as the creation of any
directory within ~/ by using sudo will create the directory with root
permissions. I've seen this many times when installing a new version of
Ubuntu and using mc or vim with sudo.

'sudo -H <appname> works around this issue.

** Changed in: emacs-defaults (Ubuntu)
