Details

Description:

The script `/etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc` calls `xrdb` on line 79. As a result, every time a user starts xfce (say, by issuing `startx`), the following warning is emitted:

/etc/xdg/xfce4/xinitrc: line 79: xrdb: command not found

This does not appear to functionally impact the user in any way, but that's just been my experience. This warning can be silenced by installing `xorg-xrdb`.

Additional info:
* xfce4-session 4.10.1-1
* xorg-xrdb 1.0.9-2

Steps to reproduce:

1. Install xfce4-session with pacman.
2. Install the system-provided ~/.xinitrc and uncomment the `exec startxfce4` line. Run `startx`, then immediately log out. (you could probably use a login manager instead, but this is the easiest way to reproduce the bug)
3. Read debug messages.

The attached file shows me simply logging in and logging out. You can see the issue on line 57.
