--- Comment #23 from Rob <r...@maris-ee.eu> ---
Since a few days I'm extensively working with kate or kwrite (internal krusader
editor). Today I obeyed silent update of the editor window contents when the
file being edited is changed from outside (e.g. git operation). Since I - with
a long 'career' of using these editors - was highly alarmed about this loss of
work (not really, I could retrieve it again), I investigated.
Long story short: It seems that the behaviour has simply become unreliable.
Sometimes the editor window is silently updated, sometimes not. Probably
related to OS flavor. The problems occur on a debian bullseye based distro (MX
Linux). The expected behaviour has never been a problem using Linux Mint 20.4
(and before). This one is based on Ubuntu focal.
Because I know about correct operation on Mint 20.4, I decided to download two
.deb files from the ubuntu focal repository:
- kate5-data_19.12.3-0ubuntu1_all.deb
- kate_19.12.3-0ubuntu1_amd64.deb
I was a bit surprised that no dependency problems occurred. The silent editor
window update is occurring here as well.
Finally I restored the original condition. I now also rememered that upon an
editing session last week, no problems occurred (no silent updates). Somehow
curious...
