Subject: [bug#54434] [PATCH v2 7/7] gnu: xfce4-session: Load user panel plugins.
Date: Fri, 18 Mar 2022 18:38:44 +1100

From: Brendan Tildesley <mail <at> brendan.scot>

 gnu/packages/xfce.scm (xfce4-session): [patches]: Add a patch to make
 use of X_XFCE4_LIB_DIRS and load user installed panel plugins. This is
 needed, because xfce is launched from /run/current-system/.... It will
 not otherwise load panel plugin .so's from the users home guix profile.

 gnu/packages/patches/xfce4-session-startxfce-load-user-plugins.patch:
 New file.
 gnu/local.mk: Reference patch file.
