Cannot create folder '/usr/share/solarus-quest-editor/assets/initial_quest/data/entities'

I am not sure what is the best practice to fix it:

  • Don't let the editor create folders during "File - Load quest..."
  • Ship an folder on Linux to fix permissions

I'm trying to figure out how to reproduce this. I'm running Debian 9, using the version 1.5.3 package. Is this a regression in the current 1.6 dev builds?

This occurs when trying to open a quest in a read-only folder.

Here, it is the initial quest data used by the editor itself (files that get copied when the user creates a new quest). It is normal that these files are not writable. Users are not expected to open this quest anyway. When they do, trying to save any file will also fail.

I think the initial quest should contain all folders (even empty) so that they don't need to be created when opening it.
