PSA: KAccounts now requires two env vars set

[Weng Xuetian]

I just wonder whether it is some work for startkde or something to be
installed under /etc/xdg/plasma-workspace/env/ . If so maybe add a
file to kaccounts and install it under /etc/xdg/plasma-workspace/env/
then you won't need to bother packagers to figure out how to make it
work.
