While I agree that many applications store the .desktop file in
alternate locations, and commonly /usr/share/applications/kde for kde
applications, according to http://docs.kde.org/userguide/kde-menu.html
#stored-where, the .desktop files should be stored as follows:
".desktop files describe the applications and are stored in:
$KDEDIR/share/applications, /usr/share/applications,
/usr/local/share/applications. These are the system-wide application
.desktop files which are controlled by $XDG_DATA_DIRS."
The use of this shared directory ensures that applications are
commonly available, despite the user's choice of menuing systems. My
apologies for the lack of reference in my previous post. I'll try to
get something uploaded for dolphin in the next day or so.
