Can you share the contents of ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs ?

I can confirm that if I switch to Spanish AND create ~/Documents before
ever launching libreoffice, then the default folder for my documents is
set to /home/username/Documents, whereas if that folder doesn't exist it
is set to /home/username. So there's clearly some buggy behaviour here.

- wrong default working dir 
+ Default directory for my documents is not localized

Title:
  Default directory for my documents is not localized

Status in libreoffice package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  The default working dir is hard coded to ~/Documents
  I had to redo my saved work, because I have assumed it was lost in ~/Dokumente

  I have now fixed this by changing the working directory manually.

  The default working dir should be changed to "xdg-user-dir DOCUMENTS"
  that other users so not suffer the same.

  I have updated from Xenial and never experienced these issues. Is it a
  kind of regression?

  libreoffice 1:6.0.3-0ubuntu1

  Ubuntu 18.04. LTS
