OK, so apparently now is the time we look at bugs but don't fix them.. or 
something. What else to do but discuss them? :)

when I run make install on my kdevelop/pics dir I see:
/bin/install -c -p -m 644 ./hi48-app-kdevelop3.png 
 /opt/kde/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/kdevelop3.png

In other words we install our app icon as "kdevelop3", not "kdevelop" which is 
how we refer to it in the KDevelop code. I can only assume this is why I 
don't have the KDevelop app icon shown correctly in for instance the About 
box. Why reportedly it works for some people I have no idea, but I'd assume 
they have old traces of Gideon or KDevelop-2 lying around.

Is this broken, should I fix it? How? Changing the code, renaming the icons in 
CVS or changing the install script? (The latter I assume is the easiest.) 


Also, the kdevelop.desktop file "name" property currently refers to 
"KDevelop". Shouldn't this be "KDevelop 3.0" or "KDevelop3"? (personally, I 
prefer the latter..). Only a matter of taste, I guess.
