Hi,
On one account on my OpenSuSE Leap 42.3 system (the main account, of course),
I'm getting these messages after the login screen and before the desktop
appears:
1)
> The R14-xdg-update script has been run at least once.
> The script is not successfully updating.
> The script will run with each login until corrected.
> Please contact an administrator or take appropriate administrative action to
> correct the problem.
> The error code is 9.
2)
> Some Trinity profile R14 XDG compliance updates failed.
> Check applications-tdemenuedit.menu for '<filename>kde-' in
> /var/tmp/kdecache-leslie/r14-xdgupdate-validation-test-9.tct.
3)
> The R14-xdg-update script has been run at least once.
> The script is not successfully updating.
> The script will run with each login until corrected.
> Please contact an administrator or take appropriate administrative action to

> Common failures include file and directory permissions.
(These messages are displayed using xmessage, and can't be copied/pasted
since the desktop isn't active, so the above is my hand-copied version, which
has all the words, but not necessarily on the same lines.)
So I looked into the indicated file, and indeed there are a plethora of lines
containing <filename>kde-... (see attached). Apparently there are 'file and
directory permissions' problems /somewhere./ I have looked at the
permissions of all files in ~/.kde and they look okay (but is owner rw-
sufficient?) I looked at the r14-xdg-update script, but the code is opaque
(at least to me). I tried renaming ~/.kde to something else but the problem
persists; also tried removing socket-dir and tmp-dir, but that doesn't help
either. The script contains this unhelpful comment:
> # This script should be needed to run only once, but corner cases
> # and file/directory permissions could cause incomplete updates.
> #
> # TODO: How to handle environments where files/directories are locked
> # administratively or are owned by root and can't be updated.
> # The nominal validation checks in this script provide some notice
> # but no direct remedy.
> #
> # TODO: How to update profile directories not named $HOME/.trinity and
$TDEHOME
> # is not yet declared when running this script.
I'm not at all sure where to look and what to look for beyond this. How can
I get past this irritating situation?
