If you follow the tutorial directly as I did, at least on Ubuntu 14.04, you wind up with root owning ~usr/.config/sublime-text-2 and causing nasty crashes on first launch. Very bad for the first user experience!

Sounds like an issue for SublimeText/Issues maybe? |

@FichteFoll Perhaps, but I think it's important for the tutorial to flow correctly for all users. I'd at least make sure you suggest running sublime once to "test it out" prior to the sudo command, even if we don't clutter the tutorial with the reason. |
