[Kstars-devel] How does one set the install prefix for QStandardPaths?

[Jasem Mutlaq]

Hi Akarsh,

I believe it is suppose to pick it up from environment variables. With
neon5, I just use neon5-env and all environment variables setup and ready,
and then I can launch any KF5 apps from within the shell without any
issues. Here are my environment variables:

SESSION=kde-plasma
XDG_DATA_HOME=/home/jasem/.project-neon5-kde//local/share
KDEHOME=/home/jasem/.project-neon5-kde/
KDEVARTMP=/var/tmp/project-neon5-kde-jasem
DEFAULTS_PATH=/usr/share/gconf/kde-plasma.default.path
XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/opt/project-neon5/etc/xdg:/etc/xdg/xdg-kde-plasma:/usr/share/upstart/xdg:/etc/xdg:/etc/xdg
DESKTOP_SESSION=kde-plasma
GDMSESSION=kde-plasma
XDG_CONFIG_HOME=/home/jasem/.project-neon5-kde//config
XDG_CACHE_HOME=/home/jasem/.project-neon5-kde//cache
XDG_DATA_DIRS=/opt/project-neon5/share:/usr/share:/usr/share/kde-plasma:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/usr/share
KDETMP=/tmp/project-neon5-kde-jasem
QT_PLUGIN_PATH=/opt/project-neon5/plugins:/opt/project-neon5/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins:/opt/project-neon5/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/plugins/kf5:/home/jasem/.kde/lib/kde4/plugins/:/usr/lib/kde4/plugins/

Regards,
Jasem
