From e7f4e50da0a46babf968c266250df1f2a09f620f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Tobias Stoeckmann Date: Fri, 23 Jul 2021 19:02:33 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] Fix crash when starting without HOME If HOME environment variable is not set, sway fails startup with a segmentation fault due to null pointer dereference. Also check calloc return value and only perform the fallback code when really needed.
