Ive had to set xdg variables manually in .profile more than once. 

What happens if you manually set the variable in .profile before using TDE?

It may well have been. I've been using it as an email agent since about
2000.  But my question is, since everything but dissenter is running
fine, but it does not succeed in becomeing the default browser despite
telling it to become the default 2 or 3 times. Its working but alwas
ompplaining its not the default...

So my question is: Whatintuncket is this XDG?? Still on stretch, I do not
have an .xdgr directory thingy in my home dir.

Is this where dissenter looks to see if its the default?
