I am trying to decide whether I should revert the move of kde_configdir from /etc/kde3 to /usr/share/config that was changed in experimental. It has caused at least one noticable problem, kdm doesn't use the normal kde path lookup like everything else so you can't override its config files in /etc/kde3. It also is probably a policy violation to have config files in /usr/share even though they can be overriden in /etc/kde3. Also since the config files disappeared from /etc/kde3 upgrades from earlier kde 3.x releases will keep their old config files in /etc/kde3 and use them instead of the newer ones in /usr/share/config.
If I revert back to /etc/kde3 I think I will need to make a symlink from /usr/share/config -> /etc/kde3 so that I still won't need /etc/kderc and /etc/kde3/system.kdeglobals. I will probably also need to check and remove any existing /etc/kderc /etc/kde3/system.kdeglobals files... Any comments? Thanks, Chris
