Description
Issue description
Some programs have issues on NixOS because files copied from nix store are read only.
This results in permission errors like this:
PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/home/davidak/.openshot_qt/title/temp.svg'
Is there any way to solve it for us or do we rely on upstream to fix it? What can we suggest them as a better way doing it?
I had this multiple times: #32898 #43685
Some developers refuse to fix such errors: "Both 1970 dates and invalid permissions are caused by NixOS being crazy, not Nikola."
