[Bug 160675] Re: gretl doesn't start due to missing .gretl2rc

[John Pye]

I think it's changed -- just tested it in 8.10. On a clean install, I
get warnings on the first run, and can't produce plot output. But it
seems to work on the second run OK. I tried deleting the .gretlrc file
and the directory .gretl, and I get the same errors again. So there is
something missing somewhere about the creation of this ~/.gretl
directory.
