Public bug reported:

I'm developing some tests in a clean linux container (much like a
chroot), where I've never run a desktop session or our scopes. Because
of that I've no ~/.local/share/applications directory, nor ~/.config
/unity-scopes. This causes errors when scope registry attempts to create
.desktop files and child scopes repository tries to store child-
scopes.json.

NB, it would be great if tests were not messing up with home directory
contents; can it already be achieved with XDG_DATA_DIRS?
