Bug#522582: Upgrading nautilus creates a bunch of unwanted folders in home

Package: nautilus
Version: 2.24.2-2
Severity: normal

After upgrading to nautilus 2.24.2 a bunch of folders were created in my home
directory like: Videos, Music, Documents, etc.

I don't want any of these folders. Automatically creating them for new
installations might be ok, but they definitely shouldn't be created when I'm
simply upgrading a package.
