|
|
Hi there!
I got a weird issue and would be thankful for any tips.
With the update to kde:5 / qt5 the editor kate has been updated on my system too. Strange thing is, if I start kate it does not have any icons (File / Save / Load) and also the file-select dialog is the default qt dialog, not the KDE dialog with all the KIO stuff (like sftp:// location).
Does anybody know what went wrong here?
I think it's about missing QT-Plugins?
Thanks a lot! |

We need to find out what's missing at runtime. I remember someone having the same problem in #kde...
Try
try again with kate, if it doesn't help, try
Code: | emerge -1 kio-extras |

It looks like a known problem, you can try the 'workaround' to verify it as seen in the following bug: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=344149 _________________ backend.cpp:92:2: warning: #warning TODO - this error message is about as useful as a cooling unit in the arctic |

still no luck on this one
all this kde4/5 stuff seems messy.
For example kdialog works fine since it still uses kde4/qt4. I got version installed.
Kate is version .
I could imagine that I'm still missing some kde5 things which were not updated via emerge -uD world . |

Did you take a look at the bug?
kdialog is installed for compatibility of kde4-based packages, it is part of kde-frameworks for kf5-based packages. For kate:5 it does not matter that the versions don't match, but it's most likely a result of insufficient unmask on your side. _________________ backend.cpp:92:2: warning: #warning TODO - this error message is about as useful as a cooling unit in the arctic |

I use XFCE as my main desktop and I upgraded to kate and konsole 15.08. Kate and konsole worked fine, but they didn't show any icons.
I had to install kde-plasma/oxygen in order to get icons.
I also had to install kde-plasma/systemsettings and run systemsettings5 in order to select proper themes and fonts for my GTK as well as for my KDE applications.. |

thanks for pointing out the packages
do you get the kde dialog when opening files or the default qt5?
Actually I've downgraded to kate:4 and everything works again. |
