           Summary: Configuration confusingly split into 3 files
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal

SUMMARY

The configuration files for Okular includes a particularly surprising place at
~/.local/share/kxmlgui5/okular/shell.rc which prompts questions
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1090285/where-does-okular-store-its-config-files.
It should be moved to XDG_CONFIG_HOME per
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=397602 with any state remaining in
XDG_LOCAL_HOME.

There's also ~/.config/okularpartrc and ~/.config/okularrc and the latter
contains state data (State, Height, Width) which should be moved to
XDG_LOCAL_HOME.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Follow steps in AskUbuntu question to see the configuration file pop up.
2. 
3.
