            Bug ID: 396867
           Summary: crash test cannot be run without an installed drkonqi
                    package
           Product: drkonqi
           Version: 5.13.3
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: ralf.habacker at freenet.de
            Blocks: 373932
  Target Milestone: ---

The crash test app inside drkonqi source dir is intended to test drkonqi
functionality. On running this test app drkonqi tries to find the currently
selected debugger for generating backtraces by calling
QStandardPaths::locate(QStandardPaths::DataLocation) for this detection (see
https://cgit.kde.org/drkonqi.git/tree/src/debugger.cpp#n131

Unfortunally it seems that QStandardPaths::DataLocation cannot be set to a
custom dir by an environment variable (see
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/src/corelib/io/qstandardpaths_unix.cpp#n320
and
https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git/tree/src/corelib/io/qstandardpaths_unix.cpp#n74),
which is required to be able to run drkonqi from a recent build or a temporary
install location.
