Error when starting pcbnew: failure to create plugins directory
Description
I get this message when starting pcbnew now:
Directory '/home/alex/.config/kicad/5.99/scripting/plugins' couldn't be created (error 2: No such file or directory)
Resolved by creating ~/.config/kicad/5.99/scripting
manually.
Steps to reproduce
- Start pcbnew without
~/.config/kicad/5.99/scripting
present.
