This is weird. Once you've removed the directory, when
xdg-user-dirs-update is run a second time (i.e. on next login) we should
notice that its not there and remap the setting for that directory type
to $home.
Can you try something like
grep VIDEOS ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs
which should print:
XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/Videos"
(or something)
Then remove ~/Videos and run xdg-user-dirs-update. What happens to the
user-dirs.dir file? Does it not now have:
XDG_VIDEOS_DIR="$HOME/"
Yes. This works as expected. Remove folders and relogin and it does not
create the folders. However rebooting and logging into the system I find
the folders are created automatically again.
