Bug Description
I recently ran out of system memory (hard drives full), while using Inkscape. Inkscape gracefully failed writing data to ./config/
The problem is that, ever since, although the hard drive is no longer full, whenever I open Inkscape I get an error
"The preferences file /home/sinjoune/
"Inkscape will run with default settings, and new settings will not be saved. "
I checked the xml file, and it was empty (reasonable), but inkscape offers no options to resolve this problem.

Delete the empty file and Inkscape will recreate it with default settings.
