            Bug ID: 12690
           Summary: references to user home directory in
                    xfce4-session-HOSTNAME:n
    Classification: Xfce
           Product: Xfce4-session
           Version: 4.10.1
          Hardware: PC (x86)
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: major
          Priority: High
         Component: General
          Assignee: xfce-bugs at xfce.org
          Reporter: heavytull at hotmail.com

                CC: benny at xfce.org, nick at xfce.org
  Target Milestone: Xfce 4.12

all references to user's home directory in ~/.cache/sessions/
xfce4-session-HOSTNAME:n, n being the X display number are recorded without
using either "$HOME" environment variable or "~". When moving the home
directory to a new location this leads to weird problems such as xfce
loading only an empty blue screen, or loading only some of all the compo-
nents that should be loaded and that very slowly... I have already seen
such problem reports. Assuming that "session saving" is used, of course.
