Bug#233775: kdm stores/uses config files in /usr/share/config/kdm
Package: kdm
Version: 4:3.2.0-0pre1v1
Severity: normal
kdm 3.2.0 from people repo installs config files in /usr/share/config/kdm.
The files in this this have additional hardcoded path to the same dir.
Unfortunately /usr/share/config is _not_ a link to /etc/kde3 but a real
dir.
Strange is that kdm ignores the /etc/kde3/kdm/kdmrc despite the fact
that kde-config --path config lists:
/root/.kde/share/config/:/etc/kde3/:/usr/share/config/
Proposed solution: Continue to not install /etc/kderc and make /usr/share/config
a link to /etc/kde3. Additionally the patch in kdm/* should be
adjusted to use /etc/kde3/... paths and not /usr/share/config.

To me vi is Zen. To use vi is to practice zen. Every command is
a koan. Profound to the user, unintelligible to the uninitiated.
You discover truth everytime you use it.
