           Summary: Add GTK_PATH to xinitrc.in.in
           Product: Xfce
           Version: 4.5.x (SVN trunk)
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Medium
         Component: xfce-utils
        AssignedTo: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
        ReportedBy: enrico.troeger at uvena.de


In order to get a somewhat working Xfce installation into a custom prefix like
/home/user/blah, GTK_PATH needs to be set in order to let GTK find the Xfce
theme engine.

It should point to $libdir, something like
GTK_PATH="$GTK_PATH:/home/user/blah/lib/gtk-2.0"

Without setting this, GTK won't find the Xfce theme engine.



(There are alternative ways like symlinking libxfce.so into ~/.gtk-2.0/engines/
but this requires direct user interaction. Furthermore, since stuff like
LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH is also set in xinitrc, it would be just straightforward
to also set GTK_PATH.)
