Tellico cannot set file owner & lost images.

[Jeffrey H. Simonson]

All of the problems I had after a clean Linux install were not due to errors
in Tellico.

   1.

   I have the Tellico .tc file on a separate partition.
   2.

   I do have the same UID of 1000.
   3.

   The files are owned by root rather than me, therefore the permission
   error. I have not been able to figure out how to change the owner, but
   Tellico can still save the data.
   4.

   My images were stored in ~/.kde/share/apps/tellico/data/ and are now
   gone, but I have a partial backup and these images appear in Tellico after
   copying them back. I am now storing them in the .tc file.
