This doesn't work without modifying the PKGBUILD. In the prepare, build, and package functions, they reference a directory that doesn't exist 'bash-xdg-5.1'. You also need to add 16 more 'SKIP' into sha256sums.

Also the patch applied doesn't really provide XDG support.

Hey nice idea. I was looking at the files and saw that XDG_CACHE_HOME is used instead of XDG_STATE_HOME for histfile. Can you change that?

By default, this package will hard code user-wide bash configure files to ~/.config/bash, which beneath bashrc, bash_profile, bash_login, and bash_logout.

If you want to customize them yourself, you need to edit PKGBUILD file to modify DEFAULT_BASHRC, DEFAULT_PROFILE, DEFAULT_BASH_PROFILE, DEFAULT_BASH_LOGIN, DEFAULT_BASH_LOGOUT. If you don't want to enable them, simply comment them out, and you will get the default bash without support XDG Base Directory.

NOTICE: If you have modified DEFAULT_BASH_HISTORY or DEFAULT_SH_HISTORY to other path, you need to make sure base directory of them have been created and base directory under /etc/skel needs install too, for new user first use, otherwise history file can not generate.
