I'm running ubuntu 19.04 via WSL on Windows 10. I have installed Mendeley Desktop on ubuntu but when I run the command sudo mendeleydesktop on my terminal I get the following error:

QStandardPaths: XDG_RUNTIME_DIR not set, defaulting to '/tmp/runtime-root'
QFSFileEngine::open: No file name specified
shared memfd open() failed: Function not implemented
Home directory not accessible: Permission denied

#0 0x7f8947eab0a5 <unknown>
#1 0x7f8947ec0eca <unknown>
#2 0x7f8946e2b8b6 <unknown> ...

Does anyone know how to get around this issue?

I've installed R (version 3.6.0) on my ubuntu 18.04 which I run on the windows subsystem WSL.

Now I'm having a problem to install some specific packages. For example xml2. When I run the command install.packages("xml2"), i get the following error:

mv: cannot move '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/00LOCK-xml2/00new/xml2' to '/usr/local/lib/R/site-library/xml2': Permission denied
ERROR:   moving to final location failed

I guess there might be some way to give myself full permission for managing my own stuff, does anyone know how to get around this issue?
