Description fxTW7H5rJ1gh 2014-08-18 18:00:15 UTC 
I had no ~/.goffice directory and saving Color Axis' failed silently until I manually created it (and its colormaps/ subdirectory). I am using 1.12.17 on 64 Bit Archlinux. https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/gnumeric/

Test case is open Gnumeric, click the graph button,
"Matrix", "Forward", "Color-Axis1", "Colors", "New", "+", "Define", "Save"

"strace -e file" and stdout then shows:
open("/home/me/.goffice/colormaps/5c6a5c98-3533-4302-a5cd-89ba39b5206b.map", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_EXCL, 0666) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
