It does so only when $XAUTHORITY isn't set before. And for some processes it instead uses /tmp/kde-$username/xauth-$uid-_$displaynum (I don't know based on which decisions). I guess if the tmpfiles cleaner comes and removes those files some things breaks. On my tumbleweed system I seem to have the tmpfile cleaner configured in a way that those aren't cleaned up, so I don't have this problem, but perhaps you have like mkubecek as well? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
