KDE applications come with .desktop files (which contain metadata like 
mime-type associations, actual exectable name etc). A few of these files have 
contents which kdeinit fails to parse, mostly because they aren't meant for 
kdeinit but other applications (for example koffice uses the .desktop files 
of the individual office applications for embedding into other applications 
or into the koffice workspace). kdeinit will ignore entries it cannot 
understand, but print the warnings you have seen.

In general, kde applications and certain baseline kde components (like 
kdeinit) tend to be rather verbose on stdout/stderr if run from the command 
line, this rarely indicates that something is genuinely wrong however.
