When logging into KDE for the first time with Debian/Squeeze on a
machine with Bluetooth hardware, KDE show a dialog reporting an error
saving the file ~/.local/share//user-places.xbel.  It is claimed to be
caused by permissions problems.  The disk is not full and the directory
exist and the user have access to write to the directory after login.

According to <URL: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=112580 >
the problem is in kdelibs and a workaround is to create ~/.local/share
before the user log into KDE.  According to
<URL: http://forums.linuxmint.com/viewtopic.php?f=109&t=69921 > the
underlying problem is fixed in kdelibs version 4:4.6.1 in Linux Mint.

I find the same problem reported to Ubuntu as
<URL: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/627815 >, and claimed to be fixed
in kde4libs version 4:4.5.1-0ubuntu7 and again fixed in kde4libs version
4:4.6.1-0ubuntu1.

I also find the same problem reported in
<URL: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=750423 >.

As this problem affect Debian Edu badly, it would be great if it could
be fixed in Debian/Squeeze.  New users, especially teachers and pupils
in schools, are confused and scared by such strange message when they
first log into their user account.
