Public bug reported:

Hello!

I have noticed a terrible inconsistency with the latest xdg-user-dirs
package. It seems, that localized Desktop folder is used as a Download
folder as well, which makes "Desktop" appear twice in Places menu, the
GTK file selector, etc., while there're actually TWO folders in the home
directory:

Desktop (unlocalized)
Desktop (localized)

Here's an excerpt from /etc/xdg/user-dirs.defaults:

DESKTOP=Desktop
DOWNLOAD=Desktop

Here's an excerpt from my ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs:

XDG_DESKTOP_DIR="$HOME/Desktop"
XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR="$HOME/Рабочий стол"

Not good, eh? I have tested this misbehaviour with both Russian and
French locales, and in both cases the Desktop folder appears twice in
all revelant places (like the file selector) - one entry points to
"Desktop", and the other points to a localized folder, e.g. "Рабочий
стол"

I shall add screenshots for both locales, that can illustrate what I
mean (tested with yesterday's daily build).
