Subject: File .emacs not read

Hi.

I'm using emacs 25.3.1 under linux ; I just upgraded slint-14.2 to 14.2.1rc2.

Now when starting emacs as user philippe or root or others, it seems that
~/.emacs is not read and I obtain a window *warnings* saying : 

Error (initialization): User GDM has no home directory

I looked for this error on google but answers don't help me.

Thanks for advices.

Regards.
