If the default configuration directory doesn't exist at startup transmission-qt will fail to save the preferences file.

A patch to fix this is attached. The directory is only created if no config dir was specified on the command line.

(trunk qt) #3938 "The default config directory isn't created by the Qt client" -- fixed.

Summary says it all. Patch by luksan with minor formatting changes (and, no doubt, a new bug) by me.

Replying to luksan:

The directory is only created if no config dir was specified on the command line.

Actually its seems like it would be better to create the config dir even if a custom one is passed in via the command line -- that's what transmission-daemon and transmission-gtk do, too.

Fixed in r11758
