Package: kde
Version: 4:3.1.2
Severity: minor

Parts of KDE fsync after writing as a result disks on laptops cannot be
spun down. 

One component that definitely does it is the organizer/alarm which
touches its file at least once a minute and fsyncs after that.
There is also another component which touches
$HOME/.kde/share/config/kdeglobals 
While mostly cosmetic it is definitely annoying to the point where I am
tempted to rebuild the entire thing with fsync redefined as "do nothing".
