There are 11323 files in ~/.config
and 5431 in ~/.cache
Worse still when I return to my F28 machine as ja then
problems are now present on that machine as well.
Presumably ~/.config (maybe ~/.cache) has been corrupted by F29.
I have to restore ~/.config (394MB) and once ~/.cache(532MB)
from a backup before I have a usable F28 machine again.
(and hence can send this email)
You could probably identify what files have changed using diff, by
comparing the changed directory tree with the original one. For example
diff -q ~/.config ~/.config.original
It'll output which files are missing (from src and rest) and which files
are different. It could still be a lot, but it might narrow things down.
Afterwards you can remove the -q and see what those differences are.
