            Bug ID: 321785
           Summary: startkde: Also source scripts in /etc/kde/env and
                    /etc/kde/shutdown
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: heirecka at exherbo.org

Currently the startkde script is looking for scripts in $PREFIX/env/ and
$KDEHOME/env.  The former location is odd, especially considering that it isn't
obvious KDE could use something in there. No other package installs something
to /usr/env/, at least on my system. Furthermore it violates the FHS in my
opinion.

FHS 4.1:
"/usr is the second major section of the filesystem. /usr is shareable,
read-only data. That means that /usr should be shareable between various
FHS-compliant hosts and must not be written to. Any information that is
host-specific or varies with time is stored elsewhere."

The attached, exemplary patch also allows searching in /etc/kde/env  (and
/etc/kde/shutdown for shutdown scripts).

Reproducible: Always
