In the debugger window, I get the following: >(gdb) set environment KDEHOME=$HOME/.kde4 >set environment KDEHOME=$HOME/.kde4 >^done Instead, it should automatically expand $HOME so this becomes: >(gdb) set environment KDEHOME=/home/kde-devel/.kde4 >set environment KDEHOME=/home/kde-devel/.kde4 >^done Note that this works fine for running programs with Build->Execute Program. It should work in both cases.
