ok, so this was caused by: * Tue Aug 21 2001 Bernhard Rosenkraenzer <bero> 2.2-6 - Move /usr/share/config/kdm to /etc/kde/kdm, fixes #51095 IF YOU ARE UPDATING FROM A VERSION BETWEEN 2.2-0.alpha1.1 AND 2.2-5, REMOVE THE OLD PACKAGE BEFORE INSTALLING, OR rm -rf /usr/share/config/kdm FIRST! I don't get why kdm_config is built with so many refs to the old location: jmm@jmm:/home/jmm> strings `which kdm_config`|grep share/config /usr/share/config/kdm/Xaccess /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmkeys /usr/share/config/kdm/Xreset /usr/share/config/kdm/Xsetup /usr/share/config/kdm/kdmrc /usr/share/config/kdm/Xservers /usr/share/config/kdm/Xsession /usr/share/config/kdm/Xstartup *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 52769 *** This is because kdm refers to KGlobal::locate("config") which will always be /usr/share/config. Ideally, /usr/share/config would be a symlink to /etc/kde, but we can't do that because we noticed it too late for 7.1, and we can't break updates from 7.1 to 7.2. |
