Hi,

I'm new to Lubuntu, I've found something weird with Lubuntu 11.10.

The session manager starts any process twice, there's some messages in 
$HOME/.xsession-errors,
from lxpanel for example.

In fact, lxsession parses /etc/xdg/lxsession/Lubuntu/autostart twice, I 
submitted a patch to
avoid this : 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=3466885&group_id=180858&atid=894871

That seems conform to XDG standards.

Anyway, the XDG_CONFIG_DIRS seems incorrect, this is what a get on my 
system :
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg/lubuntu/:/etc/xdg/xdg-/usr/bin/startlubuntu:/etc/xdg:/etc/xdg

I added two lines in /usr/bin/startlubuntu in order to get the variables 
in a file :


echo $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS > $HOME/xdg_conf_dir.txt

if test "x$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS" = "x"
then
  XDG_CONFIG_DIRS="/etc/xdg/lubuntu:/etc/xdg"
else
  XDG_CONFIG_DIRS="/etc/xdg/lubuntu/:$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS:/etc/xdg"
fi
export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS

echo $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS >> $HOME/xdg_conf_dir.txt

This is what I get :

/etc/xdg/xdg-/usr/bin/startlubuntu:/etc/xdg
/etc/xdg/lubuntu/:/etc/xdg/xdg-/usr/bin/startlubuntu:/etc/xdg:/etc/xdg

It seems that /etc/xdg is already set and the startup script appends 
/etc/xdg once more.

I would see three problems :
1) /etc/xdg/xdg-/usr/bin/startlubuntu doesn't exist and looks weird.
2) /usr/bin/startlubuntu appends /etc/xdg once more.
3) lxsession parses any $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/autostart that exists.

If my patch is correct, I may have fixed the third problem, but
concerning the environment variable I don't know what's wrong.

Any information would be welcome.

Thanks.
