Description of problem: Being in the Gnome desktop when I try to open Konsole Application it is not opening since the last update to Kernel(3.5.4-1.fc17.i686) I receive the error as "Failed to launch Konsole ... Failed to change $HOME and there is no such directory" However I have proper home directory when I type "echo $HOME". And the application Terminal is opening fine. If I try to open Konsole from Terminal application it is opening but not through Alt+F2. If I login to KDE Desktop there is no problem with Konsole. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Version 2.9.1 How reproducible: Open Konsole application in Gnome Desktop either in Omnibox or through Alt+F2 Actual results: "Failed to launch Konsole ... Failed to change $HOME and there is no such directory" Expected results: Application should Open but it is not opening. Additional info:
Probably related to bug 841471.
