Debian/unstable uses 3.4.2 since about 3 weeks (ok the whole KDE is in
there for 2 only ;-)

And I think this behaviour of kdm was introduced with 3.4 too.

Just did that from the alt-f2 run menu and I don't have LD_LIBRARY_PATH
set. =


The same environment from /usr/bin/startkde - no LD_LIBRARY_PATH. As I
said, it's kdm... =

As I said before, kdm runs a login shell too, thus $HOME/.bash_profile
gets read and that is exactly were I set LD_LIBRARY_PATH:

andreas@morpheus:~>grep LD_LIB .bash_profile
#export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=3D$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$HOME/hugin/lib:$HOME/kdevelop3.=
2.0/lib:$HOME/javalibs/jai-1_1_2_01/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=3D/usr/lib

And so that everyone knows that .bash_profile gets read:
andreas@morpheus:~>grep MEINHELLO .bash_profile
export MEINHELLO=3D"TEST"
andreas@morpheus:~>export | grep MEINHELLO
declare -x MEINHELLO=3D"TEST"
