A user's *personal* music files should not be stored under $XDG_DATA_HOME; that is for data that an application needs, not for "user documents". $XDG_DATA_HOME is the the user-specific equivalent for /usr/share or /usr/local/share. You can put user-downloaded plugins there, if they are platform-independent (e.g. Python plugins), as well as artwork used by plugins, etc. (E.g. if an extra downloaded level of a game provides background music, that music should go under $XDG_DATA_HOME of course.)
A user's documents should go in a non-hidden folder in their $HOME, and preferable use (a subdirectory of) $XDG_MUSIC_DIR for storing music files. -- UbuntuOne musicstore data isn't saved in $XDG_DATA_HOME https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/525210 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
