Right. Unless some distributions hacked up kpdf.desktop....

That's relatively new though, 2007-04-12, bug 130709. The affected distros
might still have the code that doesn't wait for 3 minutes.


There's another possibility: the support for the "--tempfile" option inside konqueror,
which might be going wrong. Frederik, check if you get "######### Deleting tempfile after use:"
in konqueror's debug output [this needs kdelibs+kdebase compiled in debug mode].
This output comes from konq_view.cc:965.
