I don=92t know whether this stack trace is representative, but the only one=

As pointed out this meinproc4 error always occurred only sporadically and u=
npredictably... :-(

Luigi, if you can put or suggest a minimal test program it would be helpful.
One could use SVN access to your folder at KDE=92s server, BitBucket via Me=
rcurial or GitHub, whatever you like, to share the code.
I am ready to support you if you need someone to build stuff on MacOSX.
I am not a Mac developer though, but do have some experience building and t=
esting apps on Linux and Mac.

No, it is certainly not.
When I installed KDevelop [1] I realised already that tons of documentation=
 is missing in its man page browser, although it would be very helpful, lik=
e all the KDE stuff. ;-) Luckily the great KDevelop code reader show a lot =
of things already.

Greets,
