Kdevelop Error dialog 

This is the error dialog I get.

[Comment 2 John Violette 2003-03-22 19:36:00 UTC]

See this discussion for more details. I believe the ebuild should install  
kdevelop into /usr/kde/$VERSION/ instead of /usr. Creating a symlink from  
/usr/kde/3/share/apps/kdevelop -> /usr/share/apps/kdevelop fixes this  
problem. Why does 'emerge kdevelop' place it in /usr? Any kde app should go  
into /usr/$KDEDIR because it will look for it's config files there and not in /usr.

while multiple version of kde can be present on the system, apps out of the basical kde 
package are installed in /usr, install kde-env package to get it working correctly 

[Comment 4 Caleb Tennis (RETIRED) 2003-04-24 13:16:08 UTC]

Again, this is just a minor setup issue and not a kdevelop issue.  If problems with the multi 
installation kde persist, please file a new bug report.
