Version: 3.3.1 (using KDE KDE 3.3.0) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages Compiler: gcc version 3.3.5 (Debian 1:3.3.5-1) OS: Linux Consistantly crashes on startup after embedded vim component is selected in Kdevelop settings. Also affects Kdevelop 3.1.0. Tried different versions of vim; gvim-gtk 6.3.025, kvim 6.3.025, 6.3.013, etc. Also tried compiling and installing most recent version of vimpart. This problem renders Kdevelop unusable as the user cannot get back in to change the editor component. Results in the following backtrace: Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".

Kdevelop version is actually 3.1.1 compiled on Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 kernel version 2.4.27-1-k7. Same crash occurs with the the "unstable" Debian Kdevelop 3.1.0 package.
Deleting the kdevses file allows me to open Kdevelop and change editors. Though trying to open a file while the vim editor is still selected causes a crash. This appears very similar to bug 80427, only more severe.
The answer to bug 80427 applies here as well. We don't maintain vim-part, and neither do the authors of it. It's dead, give up on it. (I hear yzis is quite good though.) Closing.
Yzis: www.yzis.org - a better choice.
