I don't see uikeys.txt anywhere in my Ubuntu install. Do I have to add it myself somewhere? Also, I had to add LuaUI/Widgets manually. Is this normal?

Why would he need to copy it, if it is in the installed directory?

a) /usr folder is supposed to be read only for the normal user
b) changes in the /usr folder affects all users
c) it's good practice to keep user settings files in the home rather than in a global folder
d) diff users could want different keybindings

Should this not be how it is installed by default then?
