Aha. I can't abide such desktop environments. I'm old-school: I
use twm, with a minimalist configuration. Not entirely unrelated to
the fact that I hardly ever run GUI applications such as libreoffice.
(Currently have sixteen windows open, all xterms.) Needed libreoffice
on this isolated occasion to fill in a form for my employer that was
distributed as a .ods spreadsheet file.

Yeah. Must create it on demand.

Indeed, stability would seem to preclude any move of the config directory
within the wheezy maintenance track.
