Matching subscriptions: Ubuntu 16.04 Bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1754356 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 Released 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.
