this is a failure of the call

g_mkdir_with_parents (dotdenemo, 0770);

trying to create a directory in the home directory (as returned by
g_get_home_dir() ).

I gather that fakeroot gives more, rather than less privileges, so that
seems strange. Is there a good reason why the program should be denied
permission to create a directory in the home directory in that context?
