Incorrect default paths when XDG_xxx is not defined

[Eric Work]

The ApplicationItemSource has incorrect default paths when XDG_xxx has not been defined. XDG_DATA_DIRS is effectively being set as /usr/share/applications:/usr/local/share, when it should be /usr/share:/usr/local/share. The attached patch fixes this minor 1 line problem (plus minor cleanup).

I should mention that this is likely the problem most people are having when they say their applications don't show up in gnome-do searches (from the gnome menu). This is most definitely a problem in Fedora 10 (with 0.8.x) where XDG_DATA_DIRS doesn't seem to be defined.

As a workaround you can put this line near the top of /usr/bin/gnome-do.

export XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share:/usr/local/share

Good guess, but I guarantee this isn't the problem with that bug report.
This was added about a week ago, and that bug report is much older. Thanks
for your patch.
