            Bug ID: 364801
           Summary: there should be a global plugin en/disable setting
           Product: kdevplatform
           Version: git master
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdevelop-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: rjvber...@gmail.com

With the last change to the perforce plugin I am now seeing

Could not load plugin "kdevperforce" , it reported the error: "The variable
P4CONFIG is not set." Disabling the plugin now.

each time I open a session I hadn't opened since the last updated.

IMHO this is indicative of an underlying issue with the settings management: it
isn't clear which apply per session and which apply globally. It thus cannot be
clear either what settings are session-specific overrides of a global default.

I don't use perforce, so don't have any reason to set P4CONFIG, and also do not
need to be reminded of that every time I create a new session. The perforce
plugin can be disabled once and for all (either automatically or manually), and
then that setting can apply to all sessions (present, past and future).

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. update to KDevPlatform 4.90.91.370 or later
2. create a new session or open an existing session not yet upgraded


Actual Results:  
Could not load plugin "kdevperforce" , it reported the error: "The variable
P4CONFIG is not set." Disabling the plugin now.


Expected Results:  
The above error should be printed at most once, the 1st time the absence of
P4CONFIG is detected
