Kiosktool

Is kiosktool meant to work in Trinity 3.5.13.1 ? It doesn't seem to
change anything in /etc/kde-profile

If I do the following:-

(logged in as user name xtest)
su
touch /tmp/marker
kiosktool (and delete the Multimedia menu)
find / -xdev -newer /tmp/marker

I would expect to see a list of the files changed by kiosktool in /etc....

but what I get is:-

lapcat:~xtest% find / -xdev -newer /tmp/marker
/root
/root/.DCOPserver_lapcat_lapcat.local_1
/root/.ICEauthority
/root/.trinity/share/config
/root/.trinity/share/config/kiosktoolrc

/tmp/kde-root/kiosktoolLGRkj2.tmp
lapcat:~xtest% 

If I go back into kiosktool, the Multimedia menu is still enabled.

In kiosktool Settings, I have it set to save all profiles in
/etc/kde-profile (as I've always done with KDE3).

In addition to actually changing the profile...  I can't see where the
profile gets set.  Nothing I can find in /opt/trinity uses
kiosktool-kdedirs to set the right KDEDIRS for a given user/group.

Am I flogging a dead horse here?
