[Bug 300678] New: GDM sets XDG_DATA_DIRS incorrectly
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=300678 Summary: GDM sets XDG_DATA_DIRS incorrectly Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Beta 1 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: GNOME AssignedTo: bnc-team-gnome@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: bwalle@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- GDM seems to re-set XDG_DATA_DIRS. While XDG_DATA_DIRS is set to /usr/local/share/:/usr/share:/etc/opt/kde3/share:/opt/gnome/share:/opt/kde3/share when logging in via KDE and console as set in /etc/profile.d/xdg-enviroment.sh, a session started by GDM sets it only to /usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/usr/share/gdm/. This causes KDE programs to fail (e.g. kcontrol nearly empty). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

However, kcontrol remains nearly empty here.
You may have to call kbuildsycoca to call manually (in a non-KDE session) to have KDE recognize the new .desktop items in search path. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Beside this an application which crash on a double within a environment variable is simply broken and has to be fixed ;)
No question about this, but the code in question is cut-and-pasted into several different apps and libraries and not particularly well maintained. (The fdo bugs I filed that I cited in bug #326808 still don't have any comments on them.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
