No, they would not be automatically recreate.  ~/.config holds custom
menu definitions.  This directory is usually created by apps like
gnome-menu-editor and alacarte.  ~/.local holds custom MIME types and
custom document "openers."  You may want to move this directory back if
you've made such customizations.

This is a useless error.  The useful information comes from
running /usr/X11R6/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon from the command line.
