Status
------

This change has been marked as submitted.

Review request for Plasma and Àlex Fiestas.

Repository: plasma-workspace

Description
-------

https://projects.kde.org/projects/kde/kde-workspace/repository/revisions/f01badb5aa3f76b27955f4fee2cb7281dd490353 \
introduced a regression in startkde whereby if ~/.config does not exist \
readlink will not output the right path.

This leads to startkde trying to write to /startupconfigkeys or /kdeglobals \
which obviously won't work.

Since the original commit mentions that relative paths weren't working, \
I've taken a alternative approach of using ${HOME} instead.

Diffs
-----

  startkde/startkde.cmake 281bd43 

Diff: https://git.reviewboard.kde.org/r/119522/diff/

Testing
-------

Kubuntu Plasma 5 ISO's did not have the right cursor theme before this \
patch, after editing startkde by hand, the right files were being correctly \
written, and the cursor theme worked as expected.

Thanks,

Rohan Garg
