Thanks, but something is definitely wrong. Here, the script exists and
is executable just in case:
✈ganymede:~$ kde4-config --path exe
/home/dotancohen/.kde/lib/kde4/libexec/:/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/:/usr/bin/
✈ganymede:~$ ls -l .kde/env/
total 8
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dotancohen dotancohen 105 2010-12-10 07:20
gtk2-engines-qtcurve.rc.sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dotancohen dotancohen  41 2011-02-07 21:45 path.sh
✈ganymede:~$ cat .kde/env/path.sh
#!/bin/bash
export PATH=$HOME/.bin:$PATH
✈ganymede:~$

Naturally, I restarted the machine after creating the script, but this
is the situation.
