Bug Description
DockbarX uses /usr/share/dockbar to store its shared files. That could make it impossible in future versions using both versions, the "vanilla" and the "experimental" versions in parallel when the same files are used.
Distribution packagers have a problem right now already, since e.g. the README file goes into that path most of the time. Besides that, it is bad style.

Thanks for bug report.
Current version of DockBar have no files in /usr/share/dockbar.
I see two solutions:
- README files are always placed in /usr/share/
- README of DockBar is useless in package because it contains only installation instruction, and distribution packagers may exclude this file from package.
If above solutions are bad please contact Matias and ask him to use /usr/share/
