Description
Steps to reproduce:
1. Happily use Smuxi in an old OS (i.e. Ubuntu 13.04) -> (settings in /home/foo/.config/smuxi).
2. Install some new OS (in my case Ubuntu 14.04), using the new user /home/foo14/
3. Install smuxi (apt-get).
4. Do a symlink from /home/foo14/.config/smuxi to /home/foo/.config/smuxi (adjust permissions et-al).
5. Run smuxi in foo14's session.
Expected results:
Should just work(TM) with my previous settings.
Current results:
Exception Type:
System.IO.IOException
Exception Message:
Cannot create /home/knocte1404/.config/smuxi because a file with the same name already exists.

INVALID!! I'm sorry, the symlink was wrong, I'm stupid :)
