Description Rob 2011-07-13 11:03:03 UTC 
Created attachment 191874 [details] [review]
A patch changing the default save location for debug logs to the users home directory.

Preconditions: Empathy running

Steps to reproduce: In empathy's contact list select: help, debug
Then from the debug window select save

Expected Result: The debug log(s) would be saved somewhere easy to access such as the home folder by default.

Actual Result: The default save location is /tmp in the file system and is an inconvenience to access.

The attachment is a patch that changes the default save location to the user's home directory, rather than /tmp.

Agreed that's more convenient; I'll merge to master. Thanks a lot of the patch !
