kbuildsycoca6 - Man Page

kbuildsycoca6 [Options...]

kbuildsycoca6 builds binary cache of the data stored in .desktop and MIME type .xml files that the KService framework uses to find plugins, applications and other services.

The KService library uses this database to efficiently provide the information requested of it.

Users do not normally need to run this application directly; KService will run it if necessary, when any of the files whose data is cached are changed.

--global

Ignores any user-set files (in XDG_DATA_HOME). This is currently only supported on UNIX™ systems.

--noincremental

Rather than using the existing cache and only updating the information that has changed or been added, start with an empty cache. Ignored if --global is set.

--menutest

Test the generation of the application menu database. Does not actually build the cache.

--testmode

Use the QStandardPaths "test mode" to avoid interfering with user data. This is intended for use with unit tests.

--track menu-id

Track a menu ID for debugging.

--author

Show author information.

--license

Show license information.

-h,  --help

Show a brief help text.

-v , --version

Show version information.

cachedir/ksycoca6_[lang]_[sha1-of-dirs]

The KService cache generated by kbuildsycoca6. On UNIX™ systems, cachedir is typically XDG_CACHE_HOME.
