The XDG downloads folder name is defined by the $XDG_DOWNLOAD_DIR
variable in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/user-dirs.dirs.

Title:
  Downloading files fails on non-English systems

Status in webbrowser-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On my desktop setup (French locale), the XDG download folder is named
  "Téléchargements". The apparmor policy for webbrowser-app specifically
  requests read/write access to $HOME/Downloads/, which works only on
  systems where the downloads folder is named "Downloads".

  When downloading a file in the browser, I’m seeing the following error
  in the console:

  Failed moving file from "/home/osomon/.local/share/ubuntu-download-
  manager/webbrowser-app/Downloads/example.pdf" to
  "/home/osomon/Téléchargements/example.pdf"

  I wonder if apparmor exposes a way to specify XDG folders in policies.
