--- Comment #7 from David Faure <fa...@kde.org> --- Actually, kded5 does appear to install a watch on that directory (among others), in readDirectory(). I wonder if that's what plasma is relying upon. Probably. If I touch a desktop file in that directory, I see debug output from kded5 appearing right away. at least stuff like "kded module [...] is already loaded". Do you see that too? Enable the debug area kf.kded in the kdebugsettings application first. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
