I had a better idea: naming the file sycoca5_<lang>_<hash_of_xdg_data_dirs> More precisely the last part could be the sha1 (? md5? does it matter?) of QStandardPaths::standardLocations(QStandardPaths::GenericDataLocation), which includes XDG_DATA_HOME too (on Unix). The order in that list matters so it should be a hash that is not just the sum of the letters ;) I could also include the lang into the sha1, but I figure this is more readable, if you run one application in russian one day and you want to clean up some disk space later, you can delete ksycoca5_ru_* without hesitation ;) (That's the issue with this scheme of course, the caches will just keep accumulating, I don't see how we could ever delete automatically any of them, we can't know if some app with different settings is using them. But I guess that's a minor issue.) -- David Faure, fa...@kde.org, http://www.davidfaure.fr Working on KDE Frameworks 5 _______________________________________________ Kde-frameworks-devel mailing list Kde-frameworks-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-frameworks-devel
