Or a caching issue. Some libraries cache stuff in a per-user cache |
18 |
(often in ~/.cache). There's one Qt application upon which I rely |
19 |
where the UI occassionally stops rendering. It worked fine if you |
20 |
logged in as a new user, but wiping your config, logout, reboot, etc |
21 |
and allowing it to default didn't help. I actually switched over |
22 |
completely to a new use account once to avoid the problem. Later, I |
23 |
figured out all I had to do was "rm -rf ~/.cache/<something>". |
