I stumbled over a problem with KStandardDirs:

I have a localdir Resource defined for korganizer with the absolute path
"/root/.kde/share/apps/korganizer/cal_dir" (running as root user)

In  ResourceLocalDir::doLoad() there is a check
 if ( !KStandardDirs::exists( dirName ) ) {

which says my directory does not exist (but it does).

Looking inside KStandardDirs::exists() I find that it only recognizes a=20
directory if it ends with a "/" ...

 if (fullPath.at(fullPath.length() - 1) !=3D '/') {
     if (S_ISREG( buff.st_mode ))
  return true;
 } else
     if (S_ISDIR( buff.st_mode ))
  return true;
=20

The docu in the header file says:
 /**
  * Checks for existence and accessability.
  * Faster than creating a QFileInfo first.
  * @param fullPath the path to check
  * @return true if the directory exists
  */
=20
So the docu says nothing about this behaviour. Why is this done it that way=
 ?
Is this really meant to check only for directories (which it currently=20
doesn't) ?=20

I would assume that it just checks for existence, not also for the type.

       Some operating systems are called 'user friendly',
             Linux however is 'expert friendly'.
