Bug ID: 403345
Summary: autostart does not honor "Path" indication
Product: kde
Version: unspecified
Platform: FreeBSD Ports
OS: FreeBSD
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general

Sample script that uses xmessage to display $PWD
SUMMARY
.desktop files can contain a `Path' line, that indicates the working directory
for the program to be run.
When a .desktop file is found in the .autostart directory it is executed, but
its `Path' line is ignored.
If the same file is opened with Dolphin, the `Path' line is honored.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. install a sample .desktop file, that sets the `Path' to something other than
$HOME and shows $PWD
2. restart KDE
OBSERVED RESULT
The sample program shows that $PWD is $HOME, but it should be otherwise.
