Sorry, this is kind of scattered testing. I created a second user and then tried to change that user's name when they were logged in. Got errors when trying to log in as that new user. (something like Cannot open ConsoleKit session... Failed to connect to socket /var/run/debus/system_bus_socket). The following was in .xsession_errors:
- Code: Select all
./.xsession-errors:Error: "/home/buford/.kde/tmp-refwheezy" points to "/tmp/kde-phred" instead of "/tmp/kde-buford".
./.xsession-errors:Error: "/home/buford/.kde/cache-refwheezy" points to "/var/tmp/kdecache-phred" instead of "/var/tmp/kdecache-buford".
./.xsession-errors:Error: "/home/buford/.kde/socket-refwheezy" points to "/tmp/ksocket-phred" instead of "/tmp/ksocket-buford".
./.xsession-errors:kded(3923) LayoutMemoryPersister::restoreFromFile: Failed to open layout memory xml file for reading "/home/buford/.kde/share/apps/kded/session/keyboard/layout_memory.xml" error: 5
./.xsession-errors:I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/buford/.qalculate/eurofxref-daily.xml"
./.xsession-errors:I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/home/buford/.qalculate/eurofxref-daily.xml"
And at some point, I figured out that there are a bunch of references to $oldname in ~/.local/share/akonadi. Trying to run sed on that didn't work. Will have to investigate that further.
If anyone reading this can stand to use kde4 long enough to do some testing, please step up to the plate.
