            Bug ID: 344658
           Summary: Konsole saves profile to wrong path
           Product: konsole
           Version: 3.90.900
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: konsole-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: sh.siddhartha at gmail.com

My install path is /opt/kde5 using kdesrc-build as my own user, so I have
writable permissions to /opt/kde5/share/konsole/Shell.profile. Due to this and
the path not matching
QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::GenericDataLocation).last()
(ProfileWriter.cpp:45), all my profile changes are written to
/opt/kde5/share/konsole/Shell.profile and not to ~/.local. So everytime I do a
build, the Shell.profile is replaced with a new file.

I can see that
QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::GenericDataLocation is
("/home/sdh/.kde5/local", "/opt/kde5/share", "/usr/share"), so maybe the code
should check all entries instead of just the last entry?

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Save changes to a profile. Save path is wrong.
2. Compile and install from source

Actual Results:  
Saved changes are replaced with new file

Expected Results:  
Saved changes should go to user home
