Use XDG_STATE_HOME rather than ~/.linuxmint for storing updates.json if the latter does not exist. This cuts down on the amount of cruft in user's home directories. If the older path exists, it will be used, meaning there will be no change to existing installs/setups.

This is similar to @alexcoder04 's change here: #766 Except it uses XDG_STATE_HOME rather than CACHE_HOME (which means it shouldn't be erased at random). It also relates to #752 . It doesn't fully solve it, but it does move one of the two files blocking it. |
