       The  original  locale  that  was  used  to  create  the initial set of XDG User Directories on first login is stored in the file ${XDG_CON-
       FIG_HOME}/user-dirs.locale.

       Should the user decide to update to the current locale, then xdg-user-dirs-update will be used to perform the desired action.
