I only encounter them when doing an upgrade. All this really dumb
confusion of /opt/kde vs. /opt/kde2, and $HOME/.kde vs. $HOME/.kde2
and $KDEDIR vs. $KDEDIRS and Desktop vs. Desktop2. This is a big
part of what keeps screwing up the config files...

In a kde2-only system, why are both needed? Is Caldera the only one
that has both sets of things?
