From 39faf86e122fefe4a8093f3b6609658c56c696c0 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Guilhem Moulin Date: Mon, 8 Jul 2019 05:30:37 +0200 Subject: libinterimap: use directories relative to $HOME for the XDG defaults. Previously getpwuid() was called to determine the user's home directory, while the XDG specification explicitely mentions $HOME. Conveniently our docs always mentioned ~/, which on POSIX-compliant systems expands to the value of the variable HOME (and the result is unspecified when the variable is unset). Cf. Shell and Utilities volume of POSIX.1-2017, sec. 2.6.1: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_06_01 --- Changelog | 7 +++++++ 1 file changed, 7 insertions(+) (limited to 'Changelog') diff --git a/Changelog b/Changelog index 84a62b6..d429932 100644 --- a/Changelog +++ b/Changelog @@ -69,6 +69,13 @@ interimap (0.5) upstream; the 'foreign_keys' PRAGMA during a transaction is a documented no-op). - interimap: fix handling of mod-sequence values greater or equal than 2 << 63. + - libinterimap: use directories relative to $HOME for the XDG + environment variables default values.
