Did anyone have their system break by adding a .desktop file to their /.local folder? I did that when I had KDE4 installed on my computer and it completely deleted the .desktop files of the root account...which makes me shudder in fear about putting KDE4.2 back on my computer.
I really love KDE 4.2, but I'm afraid that it might wipe out the .desktop files again...what should I do?

Simple and most of all...wrong!

I had my entire rc.conf delete itself once when I enabled the [testing] repo. Boy THAT was hilarious.
And in the midst of such perfection,
I can't help but feel diseased.

A big "WTF" to both of those problems...

+1 (although ext4 regularly wiped out my xorg.conf when X froze and forced a reboot).
It should not be possible for a user owned .desktop file to tamper with root files at all. The flaw would be with your permissions, not kde.
And even then, it's still a big "WTF".

I know... by ~/.local folder was perfectly fine. All I wanted was a .desktop to Quanta Plus, and then kbuildsycoca4 started to go psychotic.
