Perfect explanation.  Thank you Michele.

Looking at a backup those lines were in profilerc but have now been removed.

I guess the reason I was able to repeat it once was because I stopped tdm
before the script had fixed the file.  It is fixed now and the warning
no longer occurs.

I don't think we ever used KDE4 or later on these laptops which we bought
November 2018 so why those entries were present is a bit of a mystery.

Thanks!
