kpersonalizer issue
Hi,
I'm trying to setup KDE 3.0.2 from Debs here, and I'm having a problem with
kpersonalizer. It always starts up for users that don't already have a
.kde/share/config/kpersonalizerrc containing
[General]
FirstLogin=false
Also, there is no way to set this system-wide (in /etc/kde3/kpersonalizerrc
for example). At the moment, I deinstalled kpersonalizer from our
workstations, but I'd like to still offer it for those accessing it under the
K menu. Also, the global kpersonalizer setting worked in KDE 2.
The cause for this behaviour is hidden in /usr/bin/kde3:
---cut---
# run KPersonalizer before the session, if this is the first login
grep 'FirstLogin=false' $kdehome/share/config/kpersonalizerrc >/dev/null
2>/dev
if test $? -ne 0; then
# start only dcopserver, don't start whole kdeinit (takes too long)
[...]
kpersonalizer --before-session
[...]
fi
---cut---
maybe the line with the grep should be extended with additionally grepping in
/etc/kde3/kpersonalizerrc. However, that would not take the user into account
when (s)he attempts to override the system-wide setting in her home dir, by
setting FirstLogin=true or something. That would be rare IMHO though - why
would a user want kpersonalizer to autostart when it's not for the first
time?
Well, so much from me, I'm also not sure if this is a packaging issue or an
upstream issue.
And BTW, thanks for the great work with the KDE3 packages!
