Sorry, I did't checked mails today and missed those.

I think it needs this too:
Code:

chown -R user:users /home/user/.config/snuggle
Don't know if you already had it. I promise in a couple of days to do a better comparison of the files and all this should be corrected.

As it was located in /home/user/.snuggle instead of /home/user/.config/snuggle, it did not change anything in this context imho.
If you want root access only (log/db), I am afraid snuggle itself needs to be running using root for viewing/modifying, unless you have another solution for that. Of course I have no objections if you can do it in a transparent way.
Yes, the files though belonged to root. Now it is to user:users.
I don't mind the re-location but the access.

Just uploaded version 2.8-2 in extras-devel.

Hope it fixes the clean-up and removal of the logfile actions.

Sorry for this, I missed some configuration settings that ade had in the files.

There may still be permission errors. I had to chown ~/users/.config/snuggle to user:users for it to work. Was that legacy setting from previous install - perhaps? Did a purge before re-installing but that of course will leave non-empty folders... Will test again.

Secondly, de-duplicating will not work because it asks for a "yes" to overwrite, as seen in terminal.

Thirdly, for user friendliness the kml file should IMO be saved somewhere other than a hidden folder.

Thanks for this versions to both.

No need to test again, I reviewed my shell history :-) I deleted all snuggle related folders after purging, so the install was clean and thus permission errors persist.

One question: if there is no wifi or data connection, will the cell info be stored and the location determined later when internet access becomes available?

Hi, thanks for the report.

Could you please clarify if you have been testing the 2.8-1 or 2.8-2 version?

Re: [Announce] Snuggle : Geolocation using CellID and Google APIs
 
Ah, sorry - the obvious and necessary forgotten: latest 2.8-2.

Re: [Announce] Snuggle : Geolocation using CellID and Google APIs
 
Just uploaded version 2.8-3 in extras-devel.

This is the second try to fix my mess with the privileges.
Those who test, please report if it works for you too.

Changes:
* Added creation and setup of the logging folder at installation script.
* Corrections in the postrm script to use busybox ps command.

It works like this:
celltower changes are collected by the daemon continuously, without using wifi or a data connection. When you choose "import in db", an internet connection is needed to find the related coordinates. Snuggle will report if an internet connection is missing during import.

I agree it is not the best place. But I could not think of a better place. MyDocs perhaps?

Thanks for info - now confirmation as I figured this when I tested the function after a walk. Truly a lovely proggie.

IMO it must be a folder readily accessible to the stock file-manager and other progs like marble that can display .kml, so MyDocs? Yes, you, I and most reading here can cope but there are others.....
