&gt; XDG: TL;DR = says stuff should be in ~&#x2F;.config, ~&#x2F;.cache, etc.<p>XDGBDS is such an unstandard even xdg-utils doesn&#x27;t care for it. And Skype predates XDGBDS (let alone whatever the current version of XDGBDS is this week).<p>Also you&#x27;re wrong, XDG doesn&#x27;t say stuff should be in specific directories, it defines envvars specifying directories with various defaults, defaults which are at best only correct on <i>Linux</i> distros which <i>purport to follow XDG</i>, which you can&#x27;t test for because XDGBDS didn&#x27;t see fit to define a way to say it.
