netbook-launcher crashes on startup on Archlinux

[Marco Scopesi]

I'm trying to use netbook-launcher on archlinux. It compiles fine but on startup it fails with the following output:

I've also attached all informations collected by bug-buddy.

Thank you

If g_get_user_special_dir returned NULL, we would crash in g_str_equal. I've committed a fix that handles this case better, and swapped g_str_equal for g_strcmp0, which won't crash on NULL strings. Will make release soon.

This should be fixed with last release in lucid
