Summary0001215: Handle broken links to cinemas.xml more gracefully
Description

1 - I did work on DOM and create a few project
2 - I rename my user account including home directory
3 - I did open the projects where it was ok except if I try to open Preferences

An exception occurred: do_write_to_file() failed.
 (error): No such file or directory (/home/user/.config/dcpomatic2/cinemas.xml)

So I did :

  • sudo dpkg --remove dcpomatic

  • sudo dpkg -i dcpomatic_2.10.5-1_amd64.deb

    I did reopen projects and I had the same error because I think  the absolute reference in the history to cinemas.xml

    So I replace in the config.xml the ancient user name by the new one : user to rp:
