I can't seem to duplicate this.  Did you use the RPMs available from
the updates site?

Comment 2 Preston Brown 1999-08-20 15:19:59 EDT

this will be fixed in the next release.  Thank you for the report.
For now, I suggest editing /usr/bin/kappfinder and changing:

kde_icondir=`echo '${install_root}$KDEDIR/share/icons' | sed -e
's#\$(prefix)#$KDEDIR#'`
  kde_appsdir=`echo '${install_root}$KDEDIR/share/applnk' | sed -e
's#\$(prefix)#$KDEDIR#'`
  kde_minidir=`echo '${install_root}$KDEDIR/share/icons/mini' | sed -e
's#\$(prefix)#$KDEDIR#'`

to:

kde_icondir=`echo '$(prefix)/share/icons' | sed -e
's#\$(prefix)#/usr#'`
  kde_appsdir=`echo '$(prefix)/share/applnk' | sed -e
's#\$(prefix)#/usr#'`
  kde_minidir=`echo '$(prefix)/share/icons/mini' | sed -e
's#\$(prefix)#/usr#'`
