Basic Subject:
Change from internal Editor to Vim, Kdevelop 3.2.1 will not start again.

Desc:
After changing the editor to VIM in Kdevlop IDE settings i am not able 
to start the app again. (as my user name; I am allowed to "su" and start 
the app that way as root. --thru the console)

What i did:
o  Went to "settings" -> "Config kdevelop"
o  In the "editor" section i changed from "Embedded Advanced Text 
Editor" to
    "Embedded Vim Component"

I am using Kdevelop 3.2.1 on KDE 3.4 and all this on NetBSD 2.0

When i start the app from the console i get this output:
[(~)] kdevelop
QLayout "unnamed" added to IndexView "unnamed", which already has a layout
QObject::connect: No such slot ClassViewPart::removeNamespace(const 
QString&)
QObject::connect:  (sender name:   'ClassViewWidget')
QObject::connect:  (receiver name: 'ClassViewPart')
ASSERT: "part && parent" in partwidget.cpp (41)
KCrash: Application 'kdevelop' crashing...
[(~)]

********************************************
  MY FIX
********************************************
Path to the folder:
/home/<user>/.kde/share/kde/config

Edit the file: kdeveloprc
--------------------------------------------
-For example:
[#] vim ./.kde/share/kde/config/kdeveloprc
--------------------------------------------

Look for the line that says:
EmbeddedKTextEditor=<...VIM...>

Make it say:
EmbeddedKTextEditor=EmbeddedKTextEditor

Save and close
********************************************
  End MY FIX
********************************************


If this subject has already been covered/known/etc i apologize.I felt 
this necessary to share because this was giving me a headache and it 
took me almost a half an hour to find this file so i wanted to save 
others that pain.
