This issue also applies to version 17.10. In my case, I am using gnome desktop and the path /etx/xdg/xdg-gnome-xorg gets prepended to $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS on every login.
Once the $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS gets beyond a certain length, applications such as slack-desktop fails with a segmentation violation on start up. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1764355 Title: XDG_CONFIG_DIRS keeps getting expanded every login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-session/+bug/1764355/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
