Did some testing. I found that with setting $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS, things
start working "out of the box." (I did have to wipe out and rebuild my
local ksycoca cache.) I used the line below:
setenv XDG_CONFIG_DIRS $KDEDIR/etc/xdg:/etc/xdg
When KDE is installed in the normal prefix (/usr), how do those
environment variables get set? Is it a KDE responsibility or an OS
responsibility?
