------- Comment #15 from [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2007-03-21 16:56 UTC -------
That patch won't apply because syntax tweaking patch has been already applied
to SVN. But beside that, I'm not very confirtable with that patch, precisely
because it adds /usr and /usr/local to the already set $XDG_DATA_DIRS.

The spec says:

"If $XDG_DATA_DIRS is either not set or empty, a value equal to
/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/ should be used."

Therefore I think that if the user sets $XDG_DATA_DIRS, (s)he is supposed to
set it correctly and therefore include /usr and /usr/local in the list.

I mean, if the user sets the variable on purpose, it's up to him/her to make
sure (s)he set it correctly. The script should not change what the user has
specified except add the part that strictly necessary for the installation of
xfce. Think of regular PATH here, a script doesn't add /bin and /usr/local/bin
to a user set PATH.
