I have investegated a bit further: xdg-user-dirs-update is called by /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60xdg-user-dirs-update which generates the mangled file on each login. I'm just reading through the sources of xdg-user-dirs-update and try to figure out why it works on most systems and failes on others. I personly think it's a bug to generate $HOME/.config/user-dirs.dirs on every login. Would be way better to just regenerate that stuff if it's missing. > > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > trinity-users-unsubscribe@...
