Hi David,

Since a fortnight we’re discussing the QStandardPaths patch needed for the OSX/CI
system [0] on KDE-MAC [1,2] and it would be good if you’d join this discussion now,
as Ben also wants to come up with a patch for Windows very soon.
(Ian actually had already included you in his last post [3] to thread [1].)

Can we have this discussion on KDE-MAC (or on both lists), as Ian and René aren’t
subscribed to K-F-D?!

Regards,
Marko
