I have installed Qlcplus on Linux Mint and everythings work well. I have created 2 new fixtures and copy them in .qlcplus/fixtures directory and then I can use them in my project.
But now I have installed Qlcplus on Linux Puppy that is the system on our production labtop and I cant find user .qlcplus directory.
Puppy linux don't manage users, there is only root.
I have tried to create .qlcplus directory manualy with all subdirectory but my new fixture are not added to the list.
What can I do ? I have understood that I can copy my fixtures in the usr/share/qlcplus and modify the map file but it's probabely a bad solution.
Thank's in advance for your responds or suggestions.

Don't use root for normal working! :-)
If you ignore this really serious warning, have you checked /root/.qlcplus? If there is only root, your are the user "root". The home directory of this user is /root

Check home directory:
> echo $HOME

Create .qlcplus manually:
> mkdir $HOME/.qlcplus
