geocode-nominatim: Allow the cache path to be adjusted (19.51 KB, patch)

Description Philip Withnall 2017-01-12 23:36:56 UTC 
Split off from discussion in https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=756311#c160.

I still think it’s a good idea to allow these things to be configurable on a per-object basis rather than using global shared state ($XDG_CACHE_HOME) for them, but in the case of ensuring the unit tests don’t use a common cache, setting $XDG_CACHE_HOME works fine.

geocode-nominatim: Allow the cache path to be adjusted

Instead of always using the cache in $XDG_CACHE_HOME/geocode-glib, allow
the path to be customised, and set it to a temporary directory while
running the tests so we don’t accidentally use (or pollute) the user’s
actual cache.
