SUMMARY

The KDevelop app image consistently and reliably crashes when opening the Configuration page of a newly created project.
I tried to GDB to get a backtrace but it can't intercept the crash somehow (child process terminated).


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a new empty project.
2. Add a file to it (I named it main.cpp).
3. Open Configuration

OBSERVED RESULT

KDevelop crashes.

EXPECTED RESULT


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Ubuntu 18.04 with KDE desktop.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Using the app image from KDev.org

Editing project.kdev4 from

Manager=KDevGenericManager

to

Manager=KDevCustomBuildSystem

Allows me to open the properties page.

Thanks for the report.

The Clazy plugin crashes Project Configuration if using a 'Generic' project.

This has been fixed in 5.3.1, which should be released very soon.

Workarounds are to disable the Clazy plugin or (as you've done) change the project type.
