[systemsettings] [Bug 428112] Changing XDG folder locations in the KCM does not update items in the Places Model that point to the old location
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=428112 --- Comment #15 from Kjetil Kilhavn --- (In reply to LUBE from comment #13) > I have the same Problem in the newest version after a User Rename. > everything is still pointing to /home/[oldusername]/... I guess you are experiencing the problem I reported, which in my opinion erroneously was marked as a duplicate of this one. You should therefore probably reopen https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=445082 instead, but please check my description first to ensure it actually is the same problem you are experiencing. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

So all the links are broken and you need to manually fix them. Two potential solutions: 1. Have the KCM update the items in the Places model 2. Have the Places model itself use the XDG environment variables for the paths, which do get updated. Downside of 1 is having to mess with user data Downside of 2 is that if the user customizes the path, that custom path will be serialized into the config and it won't use an XDG envar path anymore, so it will break. I'll move this to System Settings for now to investigate option 1. If that doesn't work, we can investigate doing option 2. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
