When creating .emelfm2 before starting, the directory Trash is created by 
emelfm2. The configuration file doesnt.

I tryed running emelfm2 with the --no-detach and --debug=5 option, but the 
last one seems to have no effect :(

Youre right. Im using glibc-2.3.5-8

Note that i installed arch on my laptop and the same issue appear.
Ive found another arch user with the same problem.

Ive seen on my gentoo box that portage provides version 0.0.9 only. It has an 
issue making the app crash when saving config, but the file was created. 
So i tryed compiling other versions on my arch system (thanks to PKGBUILD, its 
quite easy):
0.1.4 has the problem
0.1.3 has the problem
0.1.0 has the problem, but debugging seems to work here.
The config file was located in ~/.config/emelfm2/config in this version.
emelfm2 is not able to create the ~/.config/emelfm2, but after creating 
~/.config, it is able to create his directory and his files.

So i switched back to emelfm2-0.1.4 and forced him to use ~/.config/emelfm2 
for config dir and IT WORKS!
The first time he asked me to update the old config file.
I then tryed to remove the dir ~/.config/emelfm2, and it was able to create 
all his files!

So this is still a strange behaviour..., but at least im able to use the app!


Thanks!

Charly
