Description Dyweni 2009-10-08 01:45:26 UTC 
On a new installation, using xdg-utils-1.0.2-r3 and kdebase-meta-3.5.10

The /etc/env.d/90xdg-data-base set XDG_CONFIG_DIRS="/etc/xdg"
KDE stores all it's XDG files in /usr/kde/3.5/etc/xdg

XDG_CONFIG_DIRS needs to be updated to include /usr/kde/3.5/etc/xdg.
This doesn't seem to be happening.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
emerge -av kdebase-meta
env-update
. /etc/profile
kdeinit


Actual Results:  
This error is reported:

kbuildsycoca: ERROR: applications.menu not found in (/root/.config/menus/)

Additionally, all entries in kcontrol are missing

Expected Results:  
The error should not be reported and there should be entries in kcontrol

Editing /etc/env.d/90xdg-data-base and adding /usr/kde/3.5/etc/xdg to the XDG_CONFIG_DIRS then running env-update then sourcing /etc/profile is a quick workaround.

KDE Libs should be making this update automatically.

kde3 is fading away, no need to hack up the kbuildsyoca anymore.
