[Bug 1499650] Re: local applications are not shown in menu (LXDE)

[Alkis Georgopoulos]

Since the code that breaks XDG_DATA_DIRS is in LXDE, LTSP can't fix it without directly patching startlxde.
This can not be done in a non-intrusive way for thin clients as it requires breaking the server installation (wrong debsums etc).

I'm marking this as won't fix, please file the bug report against LXDE
instead.

Title:
  local applications are not shown in menu (LXDE)

Status in ltsp package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  hi,

  /usr/bin/startlxde implicitly sets XDG_DATA_DIRS:

  export
  XDG_DATA_DIRS="/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/usr/share/gdm/:/var/lib
  /menu-xdg/"

  so the value passed from ltsp through this variable discarded.
  I had to patch /usr/bin/startlxde, to make it work:

  export
  XDG_DATA_DIRS="$XDG_DATA_DIRS:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/usr/share/gdm/:/var/lib
  /menu-xdg/"

  Description:    Ubuntu 14.04.3 LTS
  Release:        14.04

  best regards,
  Albert
