Of course, I forgot to mention that a simple command line utility cold be 
fine, sorry. I'm using CVS, and it keeps me away from this problems, 
fortunately.

I understand perfectly your reasons, and I agree with you in many of them.

Actually, I'm using kdevelop mainly as a editor. The main feature that 
kdevelop gives me, was the template kdevelop 2 provided for a new project, 
which seems very good (and I like it more than the ones kdevelop 3 provides), 
and "add a new class", which creates the files the same "look" as the others 
(via the templates), and modifies Makefile.am for me.

For me, auto* stuff is very complicated, too. I don't undersand yet the 
automake wizard, and in some situations (e.g. KDE_ICON = AUTO, and other 
rules for actions icons), I needed to modify Makefile.am by hand, copying and 
pasting a "recipe" I found in developer.kde.org.

Other kdevelop's features that I use marginally, didn't gave me problems both 
in kdevelop 2 and 3.

With a release candidate in the FTP's, I'm sure that KDE packagers will stop 
mantaining old kdevelop binaries, and the main part of kdevelop users 
community, will begin to upgrade, so it will be better be in the same 
situation of them.

Best regards.
