Bug Description

Binary package hint: kubuntu-default-settings

kubuntu-default-settings places a file called /.hidden in the file-system which causes konqueror to hide nearly all directories in the folder tree-view. I was shocked when I could not see this directories anymore. Thought I did something like 'rm -rf /'. This is really verry irritating behaviour!! I don't like it at all!
