[Bug 1250668] Re: upstart session for dbus has hard coded .cache directory

[Cuero]

I had changed to upstart package as this file is indeed in the upstart package. Is there a reason why you moved it back to dbus ?
dpkg -L upsstart list this file /usr/share/upstart/sessions/dbus.conf

Title:
  upstart session for dbus has hard coded .cache directory

Status in “dbus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Description:    Ubuntu 13.10
  Release:        13.10

  
  Package: dbus
  Architecture: amd64
  Version: 1.6.12-0ubuntu10


  The file /usr/share/upstart/sessions/dbus.conf contains a hardcoded
  path to the .cache directory, making the use of XDG_CACHE_HOME
  variable non working.

  The fix could to change line
  echo "DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=${DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS}" >$HOME/.cache/upstart/dbus-session
  into
  echo "DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=${DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS}" >${XDG_CACHE_HOME:-$HOME/.cache}/upstart/dbus-session

  I tested it and it works for me...
