           Summary: startxfce4 losts XDG_DATA_DIRS variable
           Product: Xfce
           Version: 4.4.0
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: xfce-utils
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Distribution or User wants to set his own XDG_DATA_DIRS but he can't because
startxfce4 overwrites the variable.

Reproducing:

1. Close X. Close Xfce4. Back to Console.
2. export XDG_DATA_DIRS="/usr/kde/3.5/share"
3. startxfce4 (or startx)
4. echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS

It's gone now and xfdesktop does not find .desktop files from
/usr/kde/3.5/share/applications.

startxfce4 seems to do some weird checking.. including a simple patch to fix
this issue.
