The dot directory is created from inside libshishi, in
lib/init.c (maybe_install_usercfg), I don't think it should be created
from there. For the warning, that's useful information so that users
can diagnose why shishi is not working if there's missing files, but
probably would make sense to disable the output if not asked for,
like in verbose mode or similar.
