Comment (by [EMAIL PROTECTED]):
I think the safest thing to do right now is to change the blurbs in the
various "Configuring" sections to say something like
{{{
If you installed desktop X, ensure that the menu hierarchy is created
correctly by adding the following variables to the system-wide profile or
your personal profile:
export
XDG_DATA_DIRS=$DESKTOP_PREFIX/share:${XDG_DATA_DIRS-/usr/local/share:/usr/share}
export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/$DESKTOP/xdg:${XDG_CONFIG_DIRS-/etc/xdg}
See the [XDG Base Directory Specification http://standards.freedesktop.org
/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.html]
for more details.
}}}
Substituting $DESKTOP for GNOME, KDE, or XFCE. That way, things should
always work, independent of how they've decided to implement the basedir
spec. Except that for xfce, the second one wouldn't be needed since it
puts it config files in /etc/xdg. But gnome and kde put them in
/etc/gnome/xdg and /etc/kde/xdg, respectively.
