This happens because in raring KPythonPluginFactory is linked against libpython3 and userconfig doesn't work with python3 right now.

A little bump.

Anything yet ??? The user management is very important (I miss it :-( ).

In the meantime, you can use "usermod". For example, if you installed VirtualBox in Kubuntu 13.04, first you must add your user to the "vboxusers" group and then close session and login again. In the Konsole:

sudo usermod -a -G vboxusers YourUserName

Regards
