I'm sorry but I don't quite get your problem. Yes if you install
kdevelop into your $HOME/ then you may need to adjust environment
variables for some things to be found. I'm don't quite get which of the outputs
above you think are misleading though.

The message about the directories like /home/gerhard/.local/share etc.
are generated by a CMake macro that we don't control, but I can't see
anything wrong with that output either.
