Amaya needs to create a temporary directory (.amaya) to store user 
preferences, cached files, etc.
By default this directory is created in the user home ($HOME/.amaya).
It could be another directory ($AMAYA_USER_HOME/.amaya) if you define the 
AMAYA_USER_HOME environment variable.
Pay attention this $AMAYA_USER_HOME directory must already created before 
launching amaya.
