Bug#562185: menu plugin should run kdiff3 in a detached process

[Jordi Pujol]

Package: kdiff3
Version: 0.9.95-2
Severity: normal
Architecture: any

scenario:
in KDE4, using kdiff3 from the konqueror menu plugin,

problem:
when the kdiff3 application starts, konqueror is locked
until kdiff3 is closed.

solution:
run kdiff3 in a detached process.
the attached patch does it,

Regards,

Jordi Pujol
