Package: kde Followup-For: Bug #250645
Still sweating for the effort... I'm starting a KDE session from GDM, found no way to change the default umask (by specifying a different umask in ~/.bash_profile and ~/.bashrc to it I can get new files with the expected umask from any bash console, but there is absolutely no way to get an identical behaviour from kde's file manager, which always creates 0644 files). Analyzing /usr/bin/startkde I noticed that it looks for *.sh scripts to source in ~/.kde/env, /usr/env, /usr/local/env: by adding a simple umask.sh script in my ~/.kde/env I solved my problem; this could be a way to solve this issue: all those who are willing to have identical behaviour in KDE as in other environments should then be able to source their ~/.profile or ~/.bash_profile from there. Hope it helps.
