Title:
xdg-user-dirs-update does not take care of $HOME
Status in xdg-user-dirs package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Status in xdg-user-dirs source package in Xenial:
Fix Committed
Bug description:
[ Impact ]
When setting an user dir to a folder that is subfolder of $HOME (and
when $HOME does not match the /etc/passwd defined home for the user),
the ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs is wrongly generated.
[ Test case ]
1) env HOME=/tmp/temp-home xdg-user-dirs-update
2) find /tmp/temp-home/
3) should list generated XDG user directories
4) /tmp/temp-home/.config/user-dirs.dirs should mention them
Launching something like:
- env HOME=/tmp/temp-home ./xdg-user-dirs-update --set DOWNLOADS
"/tmp/temp-home/sub/folder/of/it/Downloads"
Should modify /tmp/temp-home/.config/user-dirs.dirs so that it contains:
XDG_DOWNLOADS_DIR="$HOME/sub/folder/of/it/Downloads"
[ Regression potential ]
Xdg folders could be generated in wrong locations.
