as you can see from the current changelogs that the sysconfdir has been changed with KDE. I have compile alot of packages myself that are dependent on KDE and was wondering if they will need to be recompiled because of this change? As of right now all the packages seem to be working fine, I'm just curious

Thanks

Well one sure way would be to test it. For the most part it would depends on the particular packages in question.

so far none of my packages that are dependent on KDE have failed, they are all working
