I just noticed that my Lithium i installation created
/tmp
/usr
/bin
/GPUcache
at the root of my ~Home folder
Example 1 in /home/bin there is dropbox.py there
Not a big thing but wanted to report it...
Am i the only one ?
It's may be the Dropbox install/option that did that....
Example 2 of some folder created
/home/yoda/usr/share/bunsen/skel/

You are supposed to have ~/bin and ~/tmp - they are default $USER directories;
If you installed Dropbox, then it is expected that you would find ~/bin/dropbox.py;
IIRC the ~/usr dir is for checking if there have been updates to the user's config from new skel files, and letting them know.

ok tks
I never noticed those folders in ~ with previous distro but it doesn't mean they were not there...
Anyway if it's normal, cool... Just reported in case.

I just noticed that my Helium installation created
/tmp
/usr
/bin
/GPUcacheat the root of my ~Home folder
Realey Helium, Not Lithium?
I can not find /usr in either Helium4 live or Helium installation. But it is in my Lithuim install. /GPUcache, might be hardware dependent, it is in neither...

Thanks Yoda you've found a bug.
~/bin should be there - you can put executable scripts there and they will run with their name only, just like things in /usr/bin. (Try 'echo $PATH' to check that ~/bin is included.)
~/tmp is an alternative place to drop temporary files, more secure than using /tmp, but you will have to take care of emptying it yourself.
But...
~/usr should not be there! I'm guessing one of our recently updated scripts created it. I just checked my Lithium Virtual Machine and I had it too, though all the subdirectories were empty.
For now, just delete ~/usr - it should do no harm. I'll do the same and see if it comes back. If it does, some detective work will be needed...

Just for info:
~/.local (note the dot) is a sort-of user's equivalent to /usr with sub-directories like share...
~/.config holds most (not all) apps' config files.
~/.cache holds data that apps refer to, but can survive without if the user deletes it.

I had noticed it on Lithium, but I guessed it was part of the $USER config update checks

Found the bug. In bl-user-setup when checking the contents of /usr/share/bunsen/skel find is passing that directory itself as one of the directories to be created in HOME. Adding the option -mindepth 1 seems to have fixed it. This will go out in the next update of bunsen-configs, but meanwhile it's relatively harmless I think.

Something done automatically or we have to do something ?

Just delete the ~/usr dir.
