[Bug 209476] Re: Missing "/" in XDG_DATA_DIRS variable running Xubuntu / XFCE

[Peter Clifton]

the patch: 00_xdg_data_dirs.patch

touches the line which may be the problem:

 export XDG_DATA_DIRS
 

OP reports that the missing "/" at the start of the variable is causing
grief. Looks like an upstream bug on the first removed line, which has
been propagated further by the Ubuntu changes.
