Description Ben Boeckel 2009-08-28 18:08:38 UTC 
When using KDE4 Konversation for the first time, $HOME in the KDE3 config path is used verbatim for the logs. I have ~/$HOME/.kde/... now. After starting again, the path is corrected with $HOME expanded.
Comment 1 Eike Hein 2009-09-15 15:17:49 UTC 
SVN commit 1023885 by hein:

* Add some code to expand $HOME in logfile paths, to be able
  to handle existing KDE 3 config files where $HOME was stored
  un-expanded in the config file. While I would actually pre-
  fer to continue to do it that way, it doesn't seem to be
  easily possible in KDE 4, as KConfigXT stores the result of
  a KUrlRequester as an URL even with the pref type being
  "Path", and shell expansion (keyname[$e]) appears to no lon-
  ger be supported either.
BUG:205510
* Switch back to using KUser to get the user's home dir.
