Are you sure /usr/share/doc/HTML/en/kdevelop/.dhelp exists?

The KDE packages currently install below /usr/share/doc/HTML/ which is no
good idea.  AFAIU dhelp_parse -r removes the tree /usr/share/doc/HTML
and rebuilds it from scratch with all .dhelp files in /usr/share/doc.
Result is that all KDE HTML docs vanish from time to time when packages
are upgraded.   This will be fixed in the kde packages in the near future.

    To me vi is Zen.  To use vi is to practice zen. Every command is
    a koan. Profound to the user, unintelligible to the uninitiated.
    You discover truth everytime you use it.
