           Summary: Renaming project's directory unleashes hell on KDevelop
           Product: kdevelop
           Version: 3.4.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdevelop-bugs kdevelop org
        ReportedBy: greatbunzinni gmail com


Version:           3.4.0 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from:    Ubuntu RPMs

If a KDevelop project is saved, renamed and then reopened, all kinds of SNAFUs start \
to happen. 

I've commited some changes on a project I'm working on and then checked it out but \
this time on a different named directory. When I tried to open the project, KDevelop \
hanged. After renaming the project's directory back to the former name the project \
opened as usual. 

I've noticed that there were some source files that were automatically opened which \
could be the cause of the problem. I closed them, renamed the project's directory and \
reopened the project and this time KDevelop didn't hanged. Nonetheless there were \
some SNAFUs like a long list of bookmarks which didn't belonged to any file in the \
project. 

After a bit of digging I've noticed that KDevelop stores some project settings in \
absolute paths instead of relative paths, even though that KDevelop's \
"Project"->"Project Options"->"General" specifies the project's directories in terms \
or a relative path. Could this (the storing of some options on absolute paths) be the \
cause of all the SNAFUs?
