Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gconf

With Ubuntu 7.10, login as one user with say zh_HK.UTF-8 then logout and
select en_HK.UTF-8 and log back in.  The desktop realises the locale has
changed and suggests renaming for Desktop and other directories, however
gconfd/nautilus is still using the old values.  So create a file on the
desktop and it immediately disappears because it's a different folder.

Workaround is to reboot or login on the console and kill the users
gconfd which is still left running even after logout.

** Affects: gconf (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
