I have this partition where the OS is installed (Linux). And I have this partition where all my plugins are installed, mounted as /home/music.
I installed a new OS and Waveform. The plugins partition is still mounted as /home/music.
Now, Waveform can't find most plugins. When I open the plugin list, right-click one and select Open Containing Folder, Waveform barfs an error saying it can't find the directory /tmp/whateversomething.
What is going on? Why is Waveform looking for plugins in subdirectories of /tmp?

I remove those paths all the time to avoid unnecessary scanning. I add the path of a new plugin, scan, it's added to the catalog, then I remove the path. Plugins never stopped working because of that in my previous OS installation.
