Comment #11 on issue 484 by oliver.d...@gmail.com: Use XDG Base Directory Specification https://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=484 I have written a patch for using an environment variable to configure the base-directory of xmonad. See http://www.haskell.org/pipermail/xmonad/2014-October/014339.html. e.g. if you start xmonad with the environment-variable: $ export XMONAD_WORKING_DIR_NAME=$XDG_DATA_HOME && xmonad the directory in XDG_DATA_HOME will be used. There is also a discussion about the XDB directory in the directory package. https://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/5966 https://github.com/haskell/directory/issues/6 IMHO we should wait for the result of the discussion in the directory package. Maybe there is nothing to do after that discussion for this issue. -- You received this message because this project is configured to send all issue notifications to this address.
