           Summary: Installation of a debug version of a project
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: CVS
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-devel at kdevelop.org
        ReportedBy: sphere1952 at attbi.com


Version:           CVS (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:          Linux

After Installing a new test project because I could not run it otherwise I
determined where doing the install put the files.  I found that the installation
put files outside the directory tree of the project -- and in fact really
installed them.

This is unacceptable behavior.  I would have to recommend against using
kdevelop in any sort of production development environment, and would
have to actually forbid its' installation in any non-development production
environment.  There is no way a development system should put files outside
the area where it is being developed without first having a serious conversation
with the programmer about whether that is what the programmer really wants
to do.  I would fire a programmer who spread their untested code about
in this way.
