Can we set this environmental variable for the next release so our users
don't have to do it individually?

Subject: (solved) KDE root programs' fonts very small
To: [email protected]


Hi!

I've had the problem, that graphical programs (or program parts), which run
as root, had a very small font size - such as systemsettings5 or muon's
settings->configure software sources window.

I've investigated it, and I found that the following has to be added to
/etc/environment:

XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP=KDE

That is, the XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP environment variable needs to be set to
"KDE". But this doesn't work when set in ~/.bashrc, ~/.proile or
/etc/profile. Looks like these scripts aren't called by kdesudo. Instead,
it works when the mentionend line is included in /etc/environment (not a
script).

Bye
Volker
