Ah, I see, as you wrote already, it is

#Sets all kde related variables (and also resets them"
function setKDEEnv {
    envName="$1"
    setEnv $envName
    export KDEDIR="$GLOBAL_INSTALL_DIR/$envName"
    export KDEDIRS=$KDEDIR
    export KDEHOME="$GLOBAL_HOME_DIR/.$envName"
    export KDETMP="$GLOBAL_TMP_DIR/$envName-$USER"
    export KDEVARTMP="$GLOBAL_VARTMP_DIR/$envName-$USER"
    export XDG_DATA_DIRS="$GLOBAL_INSTALL_DIR/$envName/share"
    
    mkdir -p $KDETMP
    mkdir -p $KDEVARTMP

    export QT_PLUGIN_PATH=$KDEDIR/lib/kde4/plugins:
$KDEDIR/lib/plugins/sqldrivers

    export 
KDE4_AUTH_POLICY_FILES_INSTALL_DIR=$KDEDIR/usr/share/polkit-1/actions

    export XDG_CONFIG_HOME=$KDEHOME/.config
    export XDG_DATA_HOME=$KDEHOME/.local/share
}

you talk about.

And well… I see mostly that XDG stuff missing? But, no… they just point to 
locations I want to keep.

Frankly I don´t see what is missing. Except maybe 
"$KDEDIR/lib/plugins/sqldrivers" for QT_PLUGIN_PATH.

I do not want to change config or tmp paths.


Okay, and maybe:

    export 
KDE4_AUTH_POLICY_FILES_INSTALL_DIR=$KDEDIR/usr/share/polkit-1/actions

but I do not see anything in there, that would affect KDEPIM, except for 
some nepomuk stuff that is deprecated I bet.

So, I just still do not get, what I am missing.

$XDG_DATA_DIRS maybe? For icons? Hmmm, okay and desktop files and default 
config files. I think for my slight version change, all that does not really 
matter, but it may be good to include that for completeness.

I just want to know exactly what is missing for my usecase to add *just* 
that. :)

Ciao,
