Into what config file?
gtkrc for example be it gtk-2.0, 3 or 4.
Ok, thanks. So what exactly is the problem caused by the timestamps?
Configuration files change even thou there isn't any change on the which is an issue e.g. when you track your configuration. Removing the timestamp would be a one line change: https://invent.kde.org/Thaodan/plasma-workspace/commits/Thaodan/krdb_no_timestamp
Seems reasonable to me, wanna submit a patch to do that?
