when installing an app XDG_DATA_HOME/<APP_PKGNAME dir should be automatically created. the SDK does that when launching apps on the device.

This is an explicit decision to avoid creation of a lot of unused folders on the device. Perhaps the bug is that the SDK should not do this so that its consistent.

The SDK needs to create those directories to provide some of its features. For example to grep the stdout/stderr the application needs to write those into a unix pipe. The application directories are where the apps can write. So without extending the apps apparmor profiles just for the case of running it from the SDK that would not work. And we should not change the confinement too much when running from the SDK to provide a debugging/development experience as close as possible to production.

to avoid the creation of a lot of unused folders, on app uninstall time the folder if empty can be deleted.
