[Bug 2036597] Re: Strange permissions and/or links to default directories in home folder (Music, Pictures, Public, Templates and Videos))

[Oliver Calder]

I just encountered this issue as well when I installed the okular snap.
It overwrote my Desktop directory to `Desktop ->
/home/<myuser>/Desktop`, same with Public, and resulted in the contents
of my home directory being visible on my desktop, which is not desirable
obviously.

The version of okular I installed was:
latest/stable:    23.08.4 2023-12-10 (148)

I replaced the broken links with empty directories and rebooted, but
`.config/user-dirs.dirs` was still incorrect (I hadn't yet uninstalled
okular, but I had not opened it in a few days either).

I manually edited `.config/user-dirs.dirs` and ran `sudo xdg-user-dirs-
update`, and my homedir contents are still visible on my desktop. I will
reboot to see if the problem is resolved after this.
