FWIW, I re-installed kdelibs4 (indirectly) 3 days ago, on 13 Sept 2012. I
wanted to install kdesdk4, but my installation of qt4-mac with +mysql was
no longer valid, so I had to re-install qt4-mac without it. That led to a
whole lot of dependents of Qt being automatically re-installed, including
kdelibs4. Googling about another problem, I came across this ticket. After
reading it, I checked my entire /Users/ianw/Library/Preferences/KDE chain
and all the ownerships and permissions were correct (i.e accessible only
by ianw). My group membership is admin, but there were no group
permissions, and I ran the install of qt4-mac via "sudo".
Actually I have not had a problem with permissions since starting with
Macports on Snow Leopard in July 2011. I am now on Lion, OS X 10.7.4 and
have been through several installs of kdelibs4. I wonder if there is some
point in the kdelibs4 installation procedure where being a member of admin
makes a difference? I am effectively "root" as far as Apple software is
concerned (e.g. when giving permission to download and install software
from the Web that is not from Macports or Apple, such as Flash Player).
