What exactly does krunner do?

This is what Firefox looks like when I enter "~/software/firefox/firefox" in krunner:

And this is what it looks like when I run the same command in Konsole:

One has GTK/QT integration enabled, the other doesn't.
What's causing the difference?

Why don't you just type firefox in kruner? It's easier and it works.

I know. This is a separate Firefox install that I maintain myself, and I only used the path in this example to show that I was really running the same command both times.

Oh. OK. Sorry I can't really help you with that.

I think I found the problem. The two invocations have very different environment settings. Some of that is due to stuff that gets added by bash, other variables will probably be added by krunner. I had copied the over my ~/.bashrc from Dapper, which had these lines at the bottom:

Code: Select all
# This line was appended by KDE
# Make sure our customised gtkrc file is loaded.
export GTK2_RC_FILES=$HOME/.gtkrc-2.0


This overwrites the environment that KDE had prepared:

Code: Select all
GTK2_RC_FILES: /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc:/home/username/.gtkrc-2.0:/home/username/.gtkrc-2.0-kde4:/home/username/.kde/share/config/gtkrc-2.0


I suppose the adjustments from KDE are now in a different file. I should be able to fix this now.
