I think by default the file paths used by Qtile should respect the XDG Base Directory specification.
The specification was only partially followed, and this series of commits tries to complete the implementation.
The optional dependency on PyXDG has been made a requirement, so packagers should be informed and accordingly update their scripts.
As noted in
CHANGELOG
, some files' default paths have changed. Users may be instructed to move.qtile_history
to~/.cache/qtile/prompt_history
in order to preserve the history of commands typed in the prompt. They may also be advised to delete the old~/.qtile.log
file and refer to~/.local/share/qtile/qtile.log
, or definelog_path
in theirconfig.py
.The GoogleCalendar widget seems to be still using a
~/.credentials
folder, but I don't use it and I haven't tried to update it because I wouldn't be able to test it.Last thing, I'm not sure if
%changelog
inrpm/qtile.spec
should be updated too.
