Bug Description

When adding support for simultaneous unity8-lxc and bare metal unity8 installs, I used the wrong env var when testing which session is being used. The XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP is not carried over into the lxc session. It's better to use the DESKTOP_SESSION env var for this case.

  [ Chris Townsend ]
  * Use the DESKTOP_SESSION env var instead of hte XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP
    since XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP does not carry over to the unity8 lxc
    session. (LP: #1365537)
