tldr: kde software by default caches stuff in /var which is not covered by home encryption Scott's take on this is that if this concerns a user they should be using full disk encryption as this can happen with many applications, not just KDE software. While I agree with the general statement I do not think encrypting the entire disk is a viable solution what with having quite the impact on performance. At the same time looking at this form a performance POV, the reason caches are in /var is because they potentially change a lot and the less ever-changing stuff I have encrypted the better. Yet the issue highlighted is a real one and needs some solution, be it to document possible workarounds or fiddle with the home encryption magic to force kde's caches into $HOME. Thoughts?
