Public bug reported: xdgRuntimeDirectory uses wrong environment variable when called with a null handle. My understanding is that it should use XDG_RUNTIME_DIR instead of XDG_RUNTIME_DIRECTORY:
const char * xdgRuntimeDirectory(xdgHandle *handle) { if (handle) return xdgGetCache(handle)->runtimeDirectory; else return xdgEnvDup("XDG_RUNTIME_DIRECTORY"); } Calling with NULL returns a NULL pointer, because XDG_RUNTIME_DIRECTORY does not exist. ** Affects: libxdg-basedir (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1821670 Title: Non-cached calls to xdgRuntimeDirectory use wrong env. variable To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libxdg-basedir/+bug/1821670/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
