I just run into the same error.

It seems that the missing header file from kdevplatform archiv file was not copied to the right location.

Yes. The whole /usr/include/kdevplatform/tests/json directory is missing.

I've copied just the folder with the header files, but this seems to be not enough. I then run into this:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/4.7.3/../../../../x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: cannot find -lKDevPlatformImport__kdevplatformjsontests

[Comment 4 George L. Emigh 2013-10-31 21:42:29 UTC]

This seems similar to the issue mentioned in the mailing list today for kdevelop.

Here is one of the message urls to the archives.

Yes, you'll also have to build the corresponding library with cmake.

[Comment 6 Frank Krömmelbein 2013-10-31 23:21:55 UTC]

I now tried a different, and i think "cleaner" way.
I changed only this one line in the kdevplatform-1.5.2.ebuild 

$(cmake-utils_use_find_package reviewboard QJSON)

back to 

$(cmake-utils_use_build reviewboard)

This was the code in the old 1.5.1 ebuild. 

Next
ebuild kdevplatform-1.5.2.ebuild manifest && emerge -1 kdevplatform && emerge kdevelop

And now i have a new working kdevelop version.

Please attach the entire build log to this bug report.

It's 1.9M, I hope this is what your looking for.

This is my failed build log for kdevelop. I'm not certain if I ran into the same problem as the OP or a different problem.

[Comment 10 Matt Whitlock 2013-11-01 23:27:39 UTC]

I had the same problem in building dev-util/kdevelop-4.5.2. After I followed the steps in Comment 6, kdevelop-4.5.2 built and installed successfully.

[Comment 11 Kirk Diviney 2013-11-02 06:42:05 UTC]

I've got the same trouble, except the ebuild for 4.5.2 is almost identical to 4.5.1 and there is no

$(cmake-utils_use_find_package reviewboard QJSON)

line to change in the 4.5.1 ebuild

The line you're looking for is in: /usr/portage/dev-util/kdevplatform/kdevplatform-1.5.2.ebuild and not in /usr/portage/dev-util/kdevelop/kdevelop-4.5.2.ebuild.

The section of code under discussion is:

src_configure() {
        mycmakeargs=(
                $(cmake-utils_use_build cvs)
                $(cmake-utils_use_find_package reviewboard QJSON)
                $(cmake-utils_use_build subversion)
        )

        kde4-base_src_configure
}

I'm assuming kdevplatform is a dependency only for kdevelop. I made the same mistake when I went looking for the line myself.

[Comment 13 Andrew Udvare 2013-11-02 20:32:42 UTC]

Also had the same issue, using Comment 6 solution worked for me.

[Comment 14 John Bowler 2013-11-02 22:10:19 UTC]

Same problem, same fix.  Without the QJSON in kdevplatform-1.5.2.ebuild (I put it in an overlay with the fix) kdevplatform installs the file /usr/include/kdevplatform/tests/json/declarationvalidator.h, plus others, (confirmed using 'equery belongs') and kdevelop-1.5.2 then builds.

[Comment 15 Thomas Posch 2013-11-03 10:40:59 UTC]

Same problem, different fix.
I too noticed the missing json subdirectory. I thought json might have to do with some web interaction. So I enabled the reviewboard use-flag and it installed correctly.

So maybe kdevelep needs a DEPEND on "dev-util/kdevplatform[reviewboard]".

[Comment 17 Juergen Rose 2013-11-04 08:23:05 UTC]

Adding reviewboard USE flag to dev-util/kdevplatform helps here too.

[Comment 18 Herbert Wantesh 2013-11-04 13:41:12 UTC]

Adding reviewboard USE flag to dev-util/kdevplatform fixes the problem for me too

[Comment 20 Herbert Wantesh 2013-11-04 21:51:21 UTC]

the patch doesnt fix the compile error, as i reported the problem here 
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=327095
and compilation still doesn't work when kdevplatform is compiled with the [reviewboard] usefalg disabled

[Comment 21 Herbert Wantesh 2013-11-04 23:58:19 UTC]

this patch for kdevplatform is also needed

http://commits.kde.org/kdevplatform/02522dae26a5a8df25c8c323a765d68c27bde17f

then kdevelop compiles when reviewboard is disabled
