--- Comment #1 from FrankRep <fkoch1...@yahoo.com> --- I have the same problem. When I close the Kate window, Kate process is still running in the background yet the window is gone. When I go to open another file associated with Kate, it opens in the background process and no window is displayed. I have to use "killall kate" to remove the processes from the background in order to use Kate again. - Fedora 22 - Kate Version 5.0.0 Using: KDE Frameworks 5.17.0 Qt 5.5.1 (built against 5.5.1) The xcb windowing system -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
