Description Rohan Garg 2016-10-12 15:53:28 UTC

Hi
It seems like kde4breeze.upd completely ignores the values set in $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/kdeglobals by a system distributor causing the script to override the configured values with Breeze.

The update code seems to take into account LNF defaults but does not take into account XDG_CONFIG_DIRS

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure a different ColorScheme under the [General] category in XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/kdeglobals
2. Make sure your LNF package does not set a ColorScheme
3. Remove the ColorScheme entry from ~/.config/kdeglobals
4. Remove the kde4breeze.upd entry from ~/.config/kconf_updaterc
5. Logout
6. Login

Actual Results:  
ColorScheme is reset to Breeze

Expected Results:  
ColorScheme should be configured according to system global settings

Is this still an issue? Do you have a ~/.kde4//share/config/kdeglobals?

Is there anything about this that's still relevant today where Plasma 4 has been obsolete for years?
