Public bug reported:

Upon first launching linuxdcpp without any prior settings, linuxdcpp
seems to suggest I should save all new downloads into the folder
(replace <user> with a user name):

/home/<user>/Downloads/

which would be fine if it weren't for the fact that the default setting
for the download directory is missing the slash mark between "<user>"
and "Downloads/", thus making the default download directory:

/home/<user>Downloads/

which does not exist (at least there is no such user on my system). If
someone does not change their default setting, they might not get
anything downloaded, right?

I've attached a screen shot in case the explanation was unclear. (Notice
the cursor between "<user>" and "Downloads" -- I didn't accidentally
remove the slash mark :) the cursor just happened to be there.)

I already had a directory called Downloads in my home dir, if that might
have anything to do with it.
