Hi,
Unfortunately this doesn't work. I have just installed F7 on my work PC,
and in trying to remove xdg-user-dirs-gtk found that it is not
installed. During installation I asked to have KDE installed and not
GNOME.
I have tried editing the ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs file by setting the
directory names to nothing, or removing the lines completely. However,
whenever I log back in, the .config files and the directories are there
again.
Any ideas?
John.
