 |
|
| Does anyone know how to change the user-specific plugins directory for Azureus? I like to keep my ~ with as clean as possible, since I use that as my root background on Gnome. Is there any way to change the directory from ~/plugins/ to something like ~/.azureus/user/plugins/ ? |

Would be great to know this.
P.S. I'm using net-p2p/azureus-2.4.0.2 from BMG and this version (don't know why) has all the plugins located in /home/<user>/.azureus/plugins. |

Hi,
I had this problem too so I looked around and found the following:
1. Azureus's user plugins directory is /home/[user]/.azureus/plugins.
2. Azureus's shared plugins directory (plugins for use by all users) is /home/[user]/plugins.
3. The shared directory that the plugins folder is created under can be changed by using a different current directory with opening azureus.
You can edit the azureus startup script to do this by opening /usr/bin/azureus in nano and right before the line:
| Quote: | | source /usr/share/java-config-2/launcher/launcher.bash |
add the following:
| Quote: | mkdir $HOME/.azureus/shareddir
cd $HOME/.azureus/shareddir |
That will put the shared data in /home/[user]/.azureus/shareddir, that isn't the right place either but at least it's not in /home/[user].
