SUMMARY KDevGenericManager in 5.4.0 seems to have broken C++ tools STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Upgrade KDevelop from 5.3.3 to 5.4 2. Open any project using the Generic Project Manager OBSERVED RESULT - Background Parser not running - Go-to in a symbol is not working (Ctrl+mouse) - Project → Open Configuration Menu does not show tab to configure compiler flags - C++ integration seems fully disabled EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Thanks for reporting the issue. A similar observation had been told before on the #kdevelop irc channel, and it was found that the KDevelop Neon packages were not build against the desired llvm/clang libraries. A fix should be on the way to Neon users in updated packages already. Please look out for package updates the next days (perhaps already now) and retry. If still not working in a week, please reopen the bug.
To be clear, do projects using other manager plugins work as expected? --- The initial packaging of 5.4 in Neon had a problem with the Clang dependencies which prevented kdev-clang from working at all; that should hopefully have been fixed a few hours ago, so please try updating again and see if it works. If only the Generic manager is affected, something else is probably at fault.
