Title:
  fbautostart fails to handle XDG paths correctly

Status in “fbautostart” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged
Status in “fbautostart” source package in Precise:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This has been fixed upstream. This bug is to track it's status in
  ubuntu.

  Paths such as "/etc/foo:/etc/bar" will result in fbautostart trying to
  find a literal path of that name, rather then splitting on the ":".

  [Impact]
  XDG_CONFIG_DIRS on Ubuntu has this by default now, so this affects all installs.

  [Test Case]
  export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$TESTROOT/testdirl1
  export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=$TESTROOT/testdirg1:$TESTROOT/testdirg2:$TESTROOT/testdirg3
  fbautostart

  Where testdir[l|g]\d is a proper XDG autostart directory. Notice that
  it doesn't autostart correctly. Upstream git has a directory that is
  set up in such a way.

  [Regression Potential]
  Low. Since there's already been a regression, it's unlikely this is any less stable then the version currently in -P.
