[arch-general] error dumped to terminal: kdeinit4: ... /usr/bin/kbuildsycoca4 on kdemod3?

[David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.]

Listmates,

	Here is a curious one. I am getting KDE4 errors dumped back to the screen on 
my KDE3 (kdemod3) screen hours after kdiff3 was run from the terminal? Here 
is what is getting dumped back to my terminal through stderr on my x86_64 
install:

kdeinit4: preparing to launch /usr/bin/kbuildsycoca4
                                                                              
kbuildsycoca4 running...

                                               kbuildsycoca4(25149)/kdecore

Service :  "/usr/share/applications/scribus.desktop"

	Anybody ever seen something like this before. It looks like it will be a 
kdemod issue related to the fact that kdiff3 was built against the kde4 
runtime, but I thought I would ask hear to see if anyone else has seen 
something like this before? I have a bug open with kdemod:

http://www.chakra-project.org/bugs/showreport.php?bugid=271

where additional details can be found. The times associated with running 
kdiff3 and then the above error messages have me confused. Specifically I ran 
kdiff3 and got the following output on stdout at 2:12 am:

02:12 alchemy:~/tmp/cursor/xcursorgen-1.0.2/mycursors> kdiff3
QFSFileEngine::open: No file name specified
kdeinit4: preparing to launch /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/klauncher

kbuildsycoca4 running...

in "/opt/kde/share/applications/kde/filelight.desktop" is not compliant with 
XDG standard (missing trailing semicolon).

	Then hours later, I received the stderr messages:

[05:15 archangel:~/tmp] # kdeinit4: preparing to 
launch /usr/lib/kde4/libexec/kconf_update

                                      kbuildsycoca4 running...
                                                              kbuildsycoca4
(21983)/kdecore (KService) KServicePrivate::init: The desktop entry 
file  "/usr/share/applications/kde4/koffice.desktop"  has Type= "Application"  
but no Exec line
<snip>

[09:05 archangel:~/tmp] # kdeinit4: preparing to launch /usr/bin/kbuildsycoca4
                                                                              
kbuildsycoca4 running...
                                                                                                      
kbuildsycoca4(25149)/kdecore (KService) KServicePrivate::init: The desktop 
entry file  "/usr/share/applications/kde4/koffice.desktop"  has 
Type= "Application"  but no Exec line

	Now I'm not trying to run kdeinit4, that just what is coming back trough 
stderr and my prompt just happens to have a timestamp in it to help gage 
time.

	Is there anything I can do with kdiff3 to prevent the call to kdeinit4?
