[Bug 268167] Re: kde-config creates $HOME/.kde

So maybe this bug should be reassigned to the package these functions are implemented in!
In the meantime, here's a proposed 'patch'... wrap kde-config with the following script:

---
#!/bin/sh
decoy=""
if [ -z "$HOME" ]
then
    decoy="/tmp/decoy"
    touch "$decoy"
fi
kde-config "$@"
rc="$?"
[ -z "$decoy" ] || rm "$decoy"
exit $rc
---

This does not impact kde-config's results in any way and stops it from
messing up the poor user's account.
