The original system language for installation was US english. Some days
ago I have decided to set the system to a different language(german). On
new login the system ask if the names of the standard folders in the
home directory should be kept, or should be renamed.
On choosing renaming from US-enlish to german names there is no
renaming.
Instead a second Documents folder in german language is created(called:
Dokumente).
As a result I have two Documents folders. One called in english the
other in german.
The really big problem is that they contain different files and do not
share the files with each other.
Steps to reproduce:
1.Install the system in US-English
2. After finished installation use the system settings -> Language to set the
language to german
3.Restart the system
4.After login the system ask if the standard folders in the home folder
directory should be renamed: Choose yes, rename in german
5.See that instead of renaming the old "Documents" folder still exist and just
a second (in german) "Dokumente" folder was created.
6. See taht the contained files a different for both folders
Expected: The renaming should be a renaming and not a creation of a
second standard Document folder in a different language(here: German:
"Dokumente")
