I disabled the failing test in semanticinfobackendtest (that test did
not 
make sense anymore with Baloo), but I can't reproduce the failure in 
placetreemodeltest.

The failure happens at setup time: the tests tries to rm kde
configuration 
dir (ie $KDEHOME, after checking it ends with ".kde-unit-test"). Failing 
snippet is the following:

    QString confDir = qgetenv("KDEHOME");
    QVERIFY(confDir.endsWith(".kde-unit-test")); // Better safe than
    sorry
    if (QFileInfo(confDir).isDir()) {
        bool ok = KIO::NetAccess::del(KUrl::fromPath(confDir), 0);
        QVERIFY(ok);
    }

the QVERIFY(ok) fails on CI, but not on my box. It sounds like another 
situation where QFileInfo and KIO disagree. Ideas are welcome.
