so if you simply do sudo apt-get install kdevelop -y
and start using kdevelop 4.7 though we have root privileges it will deny from saving in our machine. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. install fresh vm of ubuntu 15.10
2. sudo apt-get install kdevelop -y
3. start writing basic code like hello world in cpp
4. try saving with ctrl+s and you will see the message that no permission or full disk

Actual Results:  
It actually denied me from saving any files.

Expected Results:  
It should have saved the files.

This looks like a user setup issue. Please,
a) never run KDevelop with root
b) make sure you own the folders you're attempting to write to (maybe it is owned by root now b/c you started KDevelop under the root user earlier)

I had all my permissions set and that I owned the folder before starting Kdevelop.
