I think the right fix for the komp-pid.diff related
error is
to replace the Unix/Standard C function calls (that take C strings) to
Qt ones, as there don't seem to be any easy way to convert back TQString
to const char* without messing with locales (TQString is UTF16, const
char* is locale-dependent).
Yup, go ahead and pop my noobie balloon!
I understand what you are describing, but my response is to act like the proverbial deer
in the headlight beam. Or go glassy eyed like a baby filling its diaper. :)
All I want to accomplish with the patches and two bug reports:
* Move both .kompmgr.available and kompmgr.pid out of $HOME to $TDEHOME/$TDETMP (non
persistent) or $TDEHOME/$TDEVARTMP (persistent). Or /var/run. Or $TMP. Anywhere
appropriate other than $HOME.
* Silence the xsession output "reading '/home/users/username/.kompmgr.pid' as
kompmgr pidfile" when kompmgr is not enabled.
