At least for KDE, you can "cp /etc/xdg/autostart/tracker* ~/.kde/Autostart" and add "Hidden=true" to all of them. The ones in $HOME override the system ones. I'd imagine other desktops work the same way, but I can't say for certain. It would be nice if it worked like sort of like systemd, where /etc overrides /lib so sysadmins can easily override stuff with RPM messing it up. -T.C. -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
