2008-04-05 03:19:24 antistress description I've tried gnome-specimen 0.4 on Ubuntu Hardy beta and it seems that it doesn't match FreeDesktop directories specs : The default for $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is $HOME/.config, the default for $XDG_DATA_HOME is $HOME/.local/share. So all applications should look for those environment variables and use those default values if the variables are not set. I can't find data and configuration files og gnome-specimen in these directories. This is quite important since it's not possible to easily backup config & data files if these files are not stored at the right place See http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/basedir-spec See also http://ploum.frimouvy.org/?184-cleaning-user-preferences-keeping-user-data (main post and comment#8) (I'm a very big fan of parcellite, please keep on your amazing work) I've tried gnome-specimen 0.4 on Ubuntu Hardy beta and it seems that it doesn't match FreeDesktop directories specs : The default for $XDG_CONFIG_HOME is $HOME/.config, the default for $XDG_DATA_HOME is $HOME/.local/share.
