Very similar, related to bug #209513 "After upgrade, "Update standard folders to current language" threatens to rename your home folder". The part that particularly concerns me about this is the prompt to rename '~/./' to '~/Public/'.
I followed up with the reporter via IRC. The datestamp on the file is: -rw------- 1 jperkin jperkin 626 Nov 22 10:32 .config/user-dirs.dirs ** Project changed: ubuntu-branding => xdg-user-dirs (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xdg-user-dirs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/893526 Title: Post login shows dialogue to rename homedir to homedir/Public Status in “xdg-user-dirs” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: This morning I updated packages as prompted, and as there was a new kernel I rebooted. After logging back in, I was greeted with the attached screenshot. No, I would not like to break my home directory, thanks :) As far as I am aware I did not change language (I don't even know how to), all I did was reboot, then type my password at LightDM and got that dialog box.
