[Github-comments] [geany/geany] Domain socket error: Not working via sudo is a geany bug, not a feature or bug in sudo (#1150)

Indeed, I was just noting it since you mentioned the socket being in the config dir.

Why does the user care where some runtime Unix socket file node is? I agree it's probably not worth changing much at this point though. A (non-portable) solution that could solve this issue would be to detect the presence of and use the `/run/user/N` directory maintained by systemd for this kind of use. Another long term option would be using GtkApplication, which I assume handles multi-user multi-instance, but that's a whole other Issue :)
