Yes. Unfortunately there are quite a few occurences of .kde left. I try
to eliminate them each time I encounter one. Hint for new KDE
developers: Take a look at kapp.h and make use of the offered methods
instead of assembling paths on your own.

Btw: I often saw the need for ~/.kde/share/apps/k*. Should we offer a
function for that ?
