Bug#732209: unable to create file '/run/user/1000/dconf/user': Permission denied

Hi,

The best way I know is to run MATE's text editor (pluma) via gksu, as
I've described in [1]. I ran it under MATE desktop environment, but it
will probably trigger the issue under other DEs as well.

You can easily set up a minimal MATE environment by installing the
mate-desktop-environment-core meta-package. After that, only installing
pluma is needed.

Please also look at the comments by Linas Vepstas in that bug report.
