Plasma 5 is awesome...and some help required with build instructions

[Bernhard Friedreich]

To me the XDG_DATA_DIRS path looks right..

 [friedreb at pollux kde]$ awk -v 'RS=\0' -F= '$1=="XDG_DATA_DIRS" {print $2}'
/proc/3183/environ
/products/kde/install/share:/usr/share
[friedreb at pollux kde]$ ls -la /products/kde/install/share/ | wc -l

73
 [friedreb at pollux kde]$ ls -la /products/kde/install/share/ | head -n 5
insgesamt 0

Any other ideas?

Thanks
