Description Justin 2006-09-01 15:13:56 UTC
As I wrote here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-3547368.html
The Azureus Shared Plugins Directory on Gentoo most of the time ends up being $HOME/plugins and that is wrong.
I found out here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1550510&group_id=84122&atid=575154
That the correct place is [azureus-binary-dir]/plugins and the way to fix this would be to change the startup script in Gentoo to either change directory to the binary directory or specify it as a Azureus command line parameter.

Fixed in 2.5.0.0-r3 by giving -Dazureus.install.path=${HOME}/.azureus to java.
Thanks for reporting and sorry for the slow response.

Thanks for fixing this though I don't think that is the correct path as Azureus has two plugin directorys. Per user plugins and plugins shared by all users. With this fix both are "$HOME/.azureus/plugins". I think the shared plugin directory should be something like "/usr/share/azureus/plugins".

Well then we should give everyone the permission to write to /usr/share/azureus/plugins and I really don't like that idea.
