Installing KDevelop 3 (export paths issue)

Decided to upgrade to Kdevelop3. I don't know why I toture myself. Searched for a Mandrake rpm to no avail. Kdevelops site under binaries listed 'cooker' for Mandrake...

 

Installed from source which took aprox 3 hours to compile. Then followed the strange advice at the Kdevelop homepage. Did the export thing and I can run Kdevelop from command line as an ordinary user.

 

Added the item to my KDE menu (KDE 3.1) and it doesn't work. I get the plugins not found error that you get if you don't export the paths as described in the web page above.

 

I don't understand why the exported path would not be available to KDE when it is available in the command line, or is it that crazy kbuildsycoca command that is not working correctly.... I have tried running that in every directory I can think of.

 

If anybody can tell me what I'm doing wrong or point me in the direction of a mandrake 9.1 rpm for Kdevelop3 I'd much appreciate it.

I think there must be a problem with my KDE installation or I'm just not getting someting....

 

From within KDevelop 3 (started form console) if I get this:

[toxaq@toxaq src]$ echo $CVSROOT
[toxaq@toxaq src]$

 

If I do the same thing from a terminal window I get

[toxaq@toxaq src]$ echo $CVSROOT
/usr/local/cvsrep
[toxaq@toxaq src]$

 

Any ideas why this would be?
