Binary package hint: unity
Restarting unity causes migrate_favorites to crash. I suspect that this is because I have custom XDG folders defined. However, all my other apps work (and use my custom folders: ~/Applications/Data instead of ~/.local/share, for example) so I don't understand why unity doesn't.

The migration script uses the xdg library for custom xdg dirs, so I'm not really sure what went wrong here. This actually looks like the BaseDirectory. xdg_data_ home field gave back an incorrect value. Does this happen reliably? Does .local/share not exist on your sytem?
