The installer only writes directly in the installation dir but the applications show normal KDE behavior.

Or am I doomed ? :) Actually i do not know exactly, it should respect the environment variables (XDG_DATA_HOME, XDG_CONFIG_HOME, KDEHOME) afaik. I have not tested it, but you probably know the code there better then me. The package does not wipe existing configuration but you will have problems if you have an old akonadiserverrc for example which is configured for mysql since your settings would override the defaults of the package and may lead to a misconfigured setup. To be save i would suggest you make backups of the Userdirs or just run the e5 as a different user for some first testing.
