XDG Compliance about kb

[gnebbia]

Dear Sir, XDG compliance is surely a priority, hence with the next release the default directory will change its position.
Let's keep this open until it is fixed.

Dear Sir, XDG compliance has been implemented. Of course it will break some sort of compatibility with previous versions.

A fix can be users moving $HOME/.kb into $HOME/.local/share/kb or into the XDG_DATA_HOME directory.

At the moment this is of course only implemented within the git version but as soon as 0.1.7 will come out this will be the default.

Yes you are right, my bad.

This the latest commit should fix this for good. Thanks to your suggestion and testing. Really, thanks a lot!

Thank you very much! I am excited to see this change in the new release :)

@gnebbia I checked some of the changes, and I just wanted to be sure of something :P

Could it be that the following code matches your description a bit more:

BASE_PATH = Path(os.environ.get("XDG_DATA_HOME",Path(Path.home(),".local","share")),"kb")

It looks like that with the current changes, if XDG_DATA_HOME is defined, then PATH_KB would be set to $XDG_DATA_HOME and PATH_KB_GIT would be set to $XDG_DATA_HOME/.git, rather than $XDG_DATA_HOME/kb and $XDG_DATA_HOME/kb/.git, respectively
