Well, that '/usr/lib' path is hard-coded in configure right now. So I may replace
it for the xinerama check, which should be properly rewritten anyway, with
`$PKG_CONFIG --variable=libdir x11`.

Yes and no port. That requires an advanced Python/C hackers ability for
some non-portable code - needs rewrite/redesign from scratch AFAICT
for Python3, at least one part.

That is not used anymore as far as we could see. So just some cruft left.
At least for officecfg. Is there more to it?

This is not good. Either the modules should set it or a proper default to ${TEMP} or such should be.


Thanks for the review, Caolan!
