Looks like other users also seem to have this issue: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=107660
This means that the install of kdelibs4 once again is broken with respect to the preferences folder permissions. :(
I'll soon have a look into this and create a workaround in kmymoney4(-devel)'s portfiles.
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 I wanted to install kdesdk4, but my installation of qt4-mac with +mysql was no longer valid, so I had to re-install qt4-mac without it.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). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/34919#comment:14> MacPorts <http://www.macports.org/> Ports system for Mac OS
