That’s because these environment variables NEED NOT be set because they have default values (which may or may not be sensible). In MirBSD we just explicitly deviate from the defaults: XDG_CACHE_HOME=$HOME/.etc/xdg/cache XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$HOME/.etc/xdg/config XDG_DATA_HOME=$HOME/.etc/xdg/data export XDG_CACHE_HOME XDG_CONFIG_HOME XDG_DATA_HOME That’s from /etc/profile. Everyone can put something into their ~/.profile (or similar) to deviate even more. The default values are: They default to: XDG_DATA_HOME=$HOME/.local/share XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$HOME/.config XDG_CACHE_HOME=$HOME/.cache There is explicitly no need to set them to be useful, an application using XDG basedirs MUST use these default values if unset and MUST honour the environment variables instead when set. bye, //mirabilos (normally against FLOS and fd.org but not in this case) -- 22:59⎜<Vutral> glaub ich termkit is kompliziert | glabe nicht das man damit schneller arbeitet | reizüberflutung │ wie windows │ alles evil zuviel bilder │ wie ein spiel | 23:00⎜<Vutral> die meisten raffen auch nicht mehr von windows | 23:01⎜<Vutral> bilderbücher sind ja auch nich wirklich verbreitet als erwachsenen literatur ‣ who needs GUIs thus? _______________________________________________ Lynx-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lynx-dev
