Upgrading to KDE4 fixes this bug, and if you don't want to upgrade there is
nothing we can do.
Excellent attitude. Look, there are people out there who earn money
using their computers and cannot upgrade
What about *fixing the bug yourself*, instead of bugging people who work
on creating a useful distribution voluntarily and in there free time?
It's all open source.
I wonder what would happen in a commercial OS. Probably you would have
to buy a new version, before the bug got fixed. At least, I

Kubuntu 8.04 was not an LTS, and even if it was it wouldn't warrant
special treatment for bugs such as this. You just get security releases
and paid Canonical support available for longer with LTS releases.

There was no fix released for KDE 3.5.
What about Hardy Heron 8.04? It is an LTS version and you forget

I can confirm that in my case the [$e] does indeed seem to be the
culprit. I had no ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs at all until changing the
settings via KMenu-System Settings. Once I had changed those settings,
the new directory I specified for Desktop appeared in user-dirs.dirs
with the [$e]. Logging

I could not change the Documents folder from the KDE configuration as
well, moreover not all directories mentioned in the user-dirs.dirs are
visible in the KDE configuration utility.

In my case the bug and workaround is actually much simpler.
~/.config is left as root/root after the upgrade to hardy
chown ~/.config to your user and restart x and this fixes the problem.

Confirmed on Hardy RC, x64 flavor.
The workaround works, too!

Rereading the comments of bug #174532, I noticed that when I change the
path in the System Settings and click Apply, the changes are correctly
reflected in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs, where the line
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR[$e]=/home/olenz/KDesktop
occurs, however, I also get
kde-config --userpath
After some more digging into the problem, I've found a workaround, and I
think that I also found the bug itself:
The KDE Control Center Module that changes the path creates an entry in
~/.config/user-dirs.dirs that has the form
XDG_DESKTOP_DIR[$e]=/home/olenz/KDesktop
When removing the [$e]
14 matches
