<pre style="margin: 0; padding: 0; white-space: pre-wrap; white-space: -moz-pre-wrap; white-space: -pre-wrap; white-space: -o-pre-wrap; word-wrap: break-word;">Hi,
I have been working a bit in kubuntu's plasma packaging, when I started plasma from a fresh new account I noticed I couldn't see most icons in the GUI's except for a few ones.
So I checked the starkde output to try to find out what was wrong, I found a line like this one:
static QPlatformTheme* QKdeTheme::createKdeTheme(): Unable to determine KDEHOME
Digging a bit more into the issue I also found out where this message comes from.
File src/platformsupport/themes/genericunix/qgenericunixthemes.cpp (Qt 5.3.0) lines 446-468:
QPlatformTheme *QKdeTheme::createKdeTheme()
{
// Check for version >= 4 and determine home folder from environment,
// defaulting to ~/.kde<version>, ~/.kde
const QByteArray kdeVersionBA = qgetenv("KDE_SESSION_VERSION");
const int kdeVersion = kdeVersionBA.toInt();
if (kdeVersion < 4)
return 0;
const QString kdeHomePathVar = QString::fromLocal8Bit(qgetenv("KDEHOME"));
if (!kdeHomePathVar.isEmpty())
return new QKdeTheme(kdeHomePathVar, kdeVersion);
const QString kdeVersionHomePath = QDir::homePath() + QStringLiteral("/.kde") + QLatin1String(kdeVersionBA);
if (QFileInfo(kdeVersionHomePath).isDir())
return new QKdeTheme(kdeVersionHomePath, kdeVersion);
const QString kdeHomePath = QDir::homePath() + QStringLiteral("/.kde");
if (QFileInfo(kdeHomePath).isDir())
return new QKdeTheme(kdeHomePath, kdeVersion);
qWarning("%s: Unable to determine KDEHOME", Q_FUNC_INFO);
return 0;
}
So I'm inclined to think the ~/.kde directory should be created if it doesn't exist, thats what the patch does. What do you think?
