To reproduce:
- install krusader without the rest of kde (probably konqueror makes the
difference)
- click on the yellow start button ,
- click on manage bookmarks - nothing happens
To fix:
emerge konqueror
I do not know if konqueror or another package includes the bookmark editor but
installing konqueror fixes the problem.
(this was also reported here for an ubuntu system
http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=473967)
I have attached also what packages I had installed before and after I fixed the
problem.
A solution is to make konqueror a dependency of krusader but I do not know if
this is the best solution.

AFAIK there are plans for Krusader's own bookmark manager, unfortunately that
won't happen before the KDE4 port. 1.80.0 will be the last release for KDE3,
and we are already in a freeze.
Making Konqueror a runtime dependency will indeed solve the problem, but like
Carlo pointed out in bug #173028, that surely won't be a very popular solution.
What do you think about a post install message which informs the user, that
konqueror has to be emerged in order to manage the bookmarks?
