<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">The reasoning "QStringList::removeAll() should remove only entries matching /Applications exactly", while true, <em style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;">does</em> exclude /Applications from the recursive search for .desktop files. So if KDE Mac applications (including their .desktop file) do get installed into /Applications, and if we need their .desktop file located by ksycoca (e.g. to associate them with mimetypes), then we can't exclude /Applications.</p></pre>

<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">This patch avoids that by removing all occurrences of /Applications from the result of <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::ApplicationsLocation)</code> (and also removes any duplicates, which seems like a good idea just in case).</p>
<p style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: inherit;">I've marked this "WIP" because I'm not sure how this implementation would work out for standalone app bundle builds. I <em style="padding: 0;text-rendering: inherit;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;white-space: normal;">think</em> they should be fine even if installed somewhere under /Applications because <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">QStringList::removeAll()</code> should remove only entries matching "/Applications" exactly. Possibly the filter could be widened to catch all "*/Applications", meaning also $HOME/Applications. That should still leave, say, <code style="text-rendering: inherit;color: #4444cc;padding: 0;white-space: normal;margin: 0;line-height: inherit;">$HOME/Applications/Kate.app</code>.</p></pre>
