[Bug translator/12443] New: XDG_DATA_DIRS conflict between preinstalled and hand-built stap


http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=12443

           Summary: XDG_DATA_DIRS conflict between preinstalled and
                    hand-built stap
           Product: systemtap
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: translator
        AssignedTo: systemtap@sources.redhat.com
        ReportedBy: fche@redhat.com


If one builds a version of systemtap by hand, but one also has a pre-installed
version to which $XDG_DATA_DIRS points, the handbuilt one will suffer from 
duplicate tapset searches.

One possible fix is to mark up the standard tapset directory with some magic
file that prevents it from being searched via the $XDG_DATA_DIRS path.  OTOH
that could defeat the purpose, if an auxiliary package installs tapset files
under the same path.
