F29 - Garbage-named directory created in home after login to GNOME

[Milan Crha]

Hi,
I've an up-to-date Fedora 29 as of today morning CET. I realized that
whenever I login to GNOME (on Wayland) a new directory in my home is
created, but its name is just garbage (nautilus claims: "invalid
encoding"). When I log in to a text console it's not created, only when
I log to GNOME.

I didn't find any bug for it, thus I'd file it myself, but:
a) I do not know which component to choose;
b) I even do not know how to debug this, those directories are empty;
c) due to an often lack of response in bugzilla, and due to a),
   I do not want to blindly guess and hope that someone will notice.
Thus I chose to write here first.

Any advice, please? I'm still willing to do the paper work, that's all
fine.
    Bye,
    Milan

P.S:
   $ ls ~
   ....
   ''$'\220\346\371\003''zU'
   ''$'\240''Ӫ.:V'
   'п'$'\315\016''yU'
   ....

$ locale
   LANG=en_US.UTF-8
   ...and all below as well, except of:
   LC_ALL=

aha, thanks, I wouldn't guess ABRT here at all. Good it's already
fixed. I also see that my bugzilla search query had been insufficient.

Thanks and bye,
    Milan

My first pass didn't find this a few days ago either so thanks for this e-mail 
thread. I'm glad to see it's already fixed.
