I've been fighting this, and (assumign the above is correct), I can't figure out
how to get weston to actually load the ini file.  I suspect the problem is
simply I don't know what path to put the config file in.... but since it runs on
boot, I don't have any way to intercept it and strace or similar to see if it's
actually trying to load things.

I'll continue working on them, but if anyone can help tell me where the ini file
belongs or how to debug this -- that would help a lot.

(I've tried putting the file directly in the sysconf [/etc] directory, as well
as /etc/xdg which was mentioned by the man page.)
