            Bug ID: 208400
           Summary: x11/gnome3: gtk-3.0 directory not being created for
                    new users
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: arm64
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Individual Port(s)
          Assignee: gnome at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: freebsd at zaziork.com

             Flags: maintainer-feedback?(gnome at FreeBSD.org)

When logging into Gnome shell for the first time as a new user in FreeBSD
10.2-Release (not tested elsewhere), the user's ~/.config/gtk-3.0 directory,
together with the settings.ini file, are not being created.

This results in an "error in writing settings" message when attempting to
switch to the Global Dark Theme in: Gnome tweak tool -> Appearance. The theme
remains unchanged.

The work around is for the new user to manually create the directory and file:

$ mkdir ~/.config/gtk-3.0 && touch ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini

Following creation of above, the theme changes correctly and the error is
resolved.
