            Bug ID: 255600
           Summary: Mk/bsd.port.mk: Set XDG_CACHE_HOME in CONFIGURE_ENV
                    and MAKE_ENV

XDG_CACHE_HOME.patch

Currently XDG_DATA_HOME and XDG_CONFIG_HOME are set in CONFIGURE_ENV and
MAKE_ENV.

The attached patch also sets XDG_CACHE_HOME.

Without XDG_CACHE_HOME some software (for ex.
https://github.com/coursier/coursier) still writes into /home/{user}/.cache=
. My
guess is that they compute the string /home/{user}/.cache based on the curr=
ent
user name, because it isn't mentioned anywhere else in the environment.

XDG_CACHE_HOME is described in the XDG Base Directory Specification
(https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-latest.ht=
ml).

Setting XDG_CACHE_HOME along with CONFIGURE_ENV and MAKE_ENV is a natural t=
hing
to do.
