I had it, here is more explanation

Flow:

1. run "sudo d3lphin"
2. close it
3. run d3lphin
4. close it
5. you get /home/<username>/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml error.

Cause:

Every time you close d3lphin a new 
/home/<username>/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml is written.
When you run as root, the d3lphin creates 
/home/<username>/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml with root permissions. 
Later, when you run as user, you try to overwrite 
/home/<username>/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml and fails.

My solution: sudo chmod 777 to
/home/<username>/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml (and poossibly
/home/<username>/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml.bak if there is a
problem there).

After 2 closes of d3lphin as user the root permission files are
overwritten and problem solved.

d3lphin developers: consider adding a "sudo
/home/<username>/.kde/share/apps/d3lphin/bookmarks.xml" option when user
get this error to overcome this issue in an automatic manner.
