This will slow down all KDE applications because KDE has to search much more dirs to find application resources (especially in case /usr/local is NFS mounted) Alternativ: Now that the /usr/share/config/ points to /etc/kde3/ the config file /etc/kderc is not necessary at all anymore. dpkg-divert it until /etc/kderc is removed in postinst script. Now define in /etc/kderc an additional KDE hierarchy e.g. in /usr/local if it's necessary. (Maybe the kde pkgs can provide a example /etc/kderc with commented out /usr/local settings).
