The bug persist when the desktop location is changed (e.g. from a German
installation):
Steps to reproduce:
1st:
Right click on Desktop, select Properties...
Change the name from "Schreibtisch" to "Desktop".
The new directory is created and the files are moved into it from the old
location. Fine
Today after a reboot, the same problem occurs again:
1a. i got a dir named "Schreibtisch", had a "Desktop" since about a year and no
more problems with it.
1b. shure all icons are *not* on the desktop
2. right-click on the desktop does nothing!
3. scaling of desktop background does not work!

Yes, this is the most stupid (sorry) decision ever. Feels like under
windows.

manually or run the command "xdg-user-dirs-update --set DESKTOP
$HOME/Desktop" to change the directory.
