--- Comment #19 from Lubos Lunak <l.lu...@kde.org> --- As this bugreport shows, throwing such errors to stderr means that nobody will notice them, and then distros will happily ship broken apps (that said, I've noticed that kcm_autostart does not one let do anything with global autostart files, not even show them, so if a distro manages to do this, the user won't have an easy way to handle the problem). KRun does a number of things that KProcess-based code doesn't (KDesktopExecParser, KAuthorized, CWD, DiscreteGPU). If they wouldn't be needed for launching .desktop files, then there would be no point in having them in KRun either. And it seems lame to require every place that wants to run a .desktop file to do this manually. I guess it'll be better to move this discussion to kde-core-devel. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
