kdevelop crashing at startup

Hello!

I just got the latest kdevelop/3.4 branch code from svn.
Compiled it successfully and installed it in my home
directory (not system-wide).

When starting kdevelop it immediately crashes. I see the
green splash screen flashing up. Then it disappears and
the console reads:

kdevelop: [virtual void DDockWindow::addWidget(const
QString&, QWidget*)]
kdevelop: SimpleMainWindow::embedPartView: [Null pointer]
KCrash: Application 'kdevelop' crashing...

The KDE crash manager gives me:

System is Kubuntu 6.06, 2.6.15-26-k7,
gcc-Version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu5),
KDE 3.5.3, QT 3.3.3.

Any ideas?

RU,
Andreas

Did you set KDEDIRS according to the output of configure?
You need to
set something like:

KDEDIRS=$HOME/kdevelop:$KDEDIR

The backtrace shows that KDEDIR and the system-wide
installed kdevelop
plugins are found before the ones in $HOME, this crashes
kdevelop.

Setting this environment variable solved the problem.
Setting it prior to "configure" had no effect
but
setting it before calling the kdevelop executable
made it work.

The compilation instructions on the web page
told me to type:

export KDEDIR=/where/your/kde3/is

Note: KDEDIR instead of KDEDIRS. The instructions
are for people which want to replace their system-wide
installation, therefore I didn't do that.

Thank you for your advice!
Andreas

Right, KDEDIRS is for telling KDE the various places where
it can find
plugins, application data and so on. When asked for
application data KDE
will look into share/apps/<appname>/ for every dir in
KDEDIRS (that's
why KDEDIR itself also needs to be in there if you set the
variable not
only inside a temporary shell) + $HOME/.kde/.

Right, but at the end of configure, when you provide the
--prefix option
it tells you to set KDEDIRS apropriately 

Anyway, good that it's working for you now. KDevelop3.4
really rocks.
