Hi,
since .config is a file in the present case, and not a directory, it
causes different troubles as mentionned above.
I then suggest that:
* check the type of files with a `test`-like function: regular files,
symlinks, directory...
* be more explicit in the second message. Example: tell the (full)
location of the target file, which could help finding out the
problem. And indicate the error number/description could help too
(then no more use playing with strace ;-)).
I think that this bug should be tagged "Upstream".
Hope it helps.
Best regards,
