Public bug reported: This file: /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60x11-common_xdg_path contains references to $DESKTOP_SESSION variable.
On one of my Ubuntu installs this variable contains: "plasma", on the other it contains: "/usr/share/xsessions/plasma". I don't know where either example comes from, but the upshot is that paths are added to XDG_DATA_DIRS and XDG_CONFIG_DIRS that don't exist. MANDATORY_PATH is also affected I believe, maybe others. Surely a sanity check of the generated paths is in order. Seems pointless to add non-existent ones. $XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP looks like a replacement for $DESKTOP_SESSION, but is that true?
