I can reproduce the crash, but creating the files does not change anything. Also, I can't see anything related to XDG in recent commits.

I confirm after installing xdg-user-dirs and running a xdg-user-dirs-update, gnome-ring runs fine on 2 different systems I tested.

Thanks for the report, this has now been fixed upstream.
