page: `docbook-to-man manpage.sgml > manpage.1'. You may view

<title>DESCRIPTION</title>
<para>This manual page documents briefly the
<command>&dhpackage;</command> command.</para>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> is used to create KDE
resources in temporary directories and symlinks to them in
<envar>KDEHOME</envar>. The resource that needs to be created is
given as an argument and can be anyone of:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem><para><emphasis>tmp</emphasis>: for the directory used
for storing temporary files. This directory should be preferably
on a local filesystem (available in KDE 2.x)</para> </listitem>
<listitem><para><emphasis>socket</emphasis>: for the directory
that holds temporary sockets. This directory needs to be on the
local filesystem (available in KDE 2.x)</para> </listitem>
<listitem><para><emphasis>cache</emphasis>: for the directory that
stores cached information such as the HTTP cache and favicons
(available since KDE 3.0)</para> </listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> will create the first two
resources in directories under <filename>/tmp</filename> (or
<envar>KDETMP</envar> if defined in the environment) and will use
<filename>/var/tmp</filename> (or <envar>KDEVARTMP</envar> if
defined in the environment) for the <emphasis>cache</emphasis>
resource (in order to survive system reboots). The temporary
directories created for resources are usually of the form
<filename>RESOURCE-USERNAME</filename>. The name might vary if
those filenames already exist and do not belong to the user for
which <command>&dhpackage;</command> is run, a temporary (unique)
name will be used if possible to prevent temporary symlink
attacks. </para>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> is usually called by the
<command>startkde</command> script.</para>
</refsect1>
<refsect1>
<title>EXIT VALUES</title>
<para><command>&dhpackage;</command> will return 0 if it can
create the resource and symlink to it, or if the resource already
exists and is properly symlinked it will return 1 if it cannot
create the link or if the symlink is pointing to an incorrect
location.</para>
