The installation stops with

Er is een fout opgetreden.
Fout bij lezen uit bestand /root/.config/user-dirs.dirs

(an error occured. Error reading file /root/.config/users-dirs.dirs)

The problem is that the file /root/.config/users-dirs.dirs doesn't exists.
Workaround: It can be created by typing sudo xdg-user-dirs-update. After that the installer runs.

Having the same issue on Pop!_OS 20.10.

There has been an error.
Error reading file /root/.config/user-dirs.dirs

Found a workaround. Tracker is expecting xdg-user to be configured in root, but it may have been installed for your local user. To fix temporarily, copy the user-dirs.dir from ~/.config into /root/.config.
