Priority: Medium
Bug ID: 9087
Assignee: [email protected]
Summary: Don't set GLADE_MODULE_PATH in xinitrc
Severity: normal
Classification: Xfce
OS: Linux
Reporter: [email protected]
Hardware: Other
Status: NEW
Version: 4.8.2
Component: General
Product: Xfce-utils
xfce's xinitrc (
http://git.xfce.org/archive/xfce-utils/tree/scripts/xinitrc.in.in ) sets
various glade environment variables, which are inherited by all applications in
that session:
# Modify libglade and glade environment variables so that
# it will find the files installed by Xfce
LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH="$LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH:@XFCE_LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH@"
GLADE_CATALOG_PATH="$GLADE_CATALOG_PATH:@XFCE_GLADE_CATALOG_PATH@"
GLADE_PIXMAP_PATH="$GLADE_PIXMAP_PATH:@XFCE_GLADE_PIXMAP_PATH@"
GLADE_MODULE_PATH="$GLADE_MODULE_PATH:@XFCE_GLADE_MODULE_PATH@"
export LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH
export GLADE_CATALOG_PATH
export GLADE_PIXMAP_PATH
export GLADE_MODULE_PATH
Running a new version of glade in a different prefix (/usr/local or similar)
will end up loading mismatching glade module versions due to those variables.
I'm not sure that the environment variables are actually necessary - the
default libgladeui should search those paths anyway. I have commented them out
with no ill effects (Fedora 13, xfce 4.6.2). If they are required for some
reason they should be confined to XFCE applications, not the entire desktop
session.
