Bug Description

Binary package hint: gnome-do-plugins

The lastest version of gnome-do-plugins (0.8.1.3+dfsg-0ubuntu2) contains a patch to make the Rhythmbox plugin use the XDG dirs.

This doesn't work for me. It tries to access ~/.gnome2/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml instead of ~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml

The file ~/.local/share/rhythmbox/rhythmdb.xml does exist.

A purge of both gnome-do and gnome-do-plugins and a reinstall doesn't help.
XDG is kept at the default settings.

Can you try using the one from trunk?

It turned out the problem was that the plugin didn't actually get upgraded. removing the folder ~/.local/share/gnome-do and adding the plugin again helped. Both the trunk and the version in jaunty repos work.

But perhaps there's a problem how the upgrade functions. Seems like the addin db isn't updated properly.

Sorry for double posting, but I forgot to mention that the folder ~/.local/share/gnome-do isn't deleted if running a apt-get purge gnome-do gnome-do-plugins

Right, dpkg cannot access users' home directories. It is up to the application to ensure that this is dealt with correctly.

Both the reported issue - Rhythmbox XDG directories - and the incidentally reported upgrade issue are both fixed. The upgrade issue was fixed in gnome-do 0.8.2
