4 What's the point of having nonempty XDG_ variables in ebuilds?
5
6 Use of these variables is scoped to user applications that use these in
7 runtime, therefore I see no business for them in package
8 (de)installation and it should be ok for portage to unset the variables
9 and if application is using these during build/install (in system
10 context) it's a problem with the application.
