            Bug ID: 366561
           Summary: Baloo file daemon starts with non-KDE Desktop
                    environments
           Product: frameworks-baloo
           Version: 5.24.0
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Baloo File Daemon
          Assignee: pinak.ah...@gmail.com
          Reporter: piedro.kul...@googlemail.com

As I found out after looking into the /ec/xdg/autostart folder - the following
settings are used to start the baloo file daemon in the background no matter
what DE is used. 

> X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=true
> OnlyShowIn=KDE;GNOME;Unity;XFCE 

This is unnecessarily intrusive behaviour. Users installing another desktop
environment alongside KDE will have a distorted experience (like performance
issues - Gnome for example has it's own background service for indexing!). 

Since there are now additional background processes running which have no
function within their DE. 

Please change the configuration defaults to something like:  

> X-GNOME-Autostart-enabled=false
> OnlyShowIn=KDE

thx, piedro

Reproducible: Always
