(*** This bug was imported into bugs.kde.org ***)

Package:           kdevelop
Version:           2.1.2 (using KDE 3.0.2 )
Severity:          normal
Installed from:    Mandrake Linux Cooker i586 - Cooker
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.0 3.2-0.2mdk)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.4.18-21mdk
OS/Compiler notes: 

When i create a new C++ console project in KDevelop 2.1.2 the project wizard cannot extract the admin.tar.gz file.  (It receives the message 'gunzip: admin.tar.gz: not in gzip format')  Upon further investigation i found that admin.tar.gz is actually a bzip2 file so i had to manually extract it with bunzip2 admin.tar.gz.

here's the output of gunzip -V
gunzip 1.2.4 (18 Aug 93)
Compilation options:
DIRENT UTIME STDC_HEADERS HAVE_UNISTD_H

my bunzip2 version is Version 1.0.2 30-Dec-2001.

Mostly I would like to know if this is a Mandrake specific problem...

To fix it I did the following:

tar xjf admin.tar.gz
emacs admin/cvs.sh

    I then edited line 67 to be automake*1.6* rather than automake*1.6.2
    (This however is a seperate problem)
    
tar czf admin.tar.gz admin
rm -fR admin



Thank you for making such a wonderful program!  I'm just getting into
developing for Linux and can't wait to help contribute.
