Subject: [PATCH] gnu: luakit: Fix crash on startup.

* gnu/packages/web-browsers.scm (luakit): add XDG_CONFIG_DIRS to the
  wrapping phase.

This fixes a crash when no configuration file is present in the user's home
directory. It allows luakit to use it's own default configuration files.

Applied.  “guix environment --ad-hoc luakit -- luakit” works like a
charm now, thank you!
