Well, KDE has its own trouble, even upstream, and for RedHat / Fedora packagers KDE seems a clear second or third choice to work on. The Gnome upgrade from Centos 7.1 to 7.2 was "urgs" and has driven me to switch to XFCE even @work, where I had to ask the sys-admins for allowance beforehand. vim / gvim / jedit Vim and its graphical frontend gvim are in use for nearly all my tasks as text-editors. A special place in my heart has (g)vimdiff which is a great help im my daily work (shell-scripts, php, css, html, js, and markdown make most the volume) The availability of a very powerfull text editor that can be worked with in a terminal the same whether local or remote (via ssh) gives a concistency that other editors lack, or, in the case of emacs, are not my taste at all.

If you're fully up to date with 'yum', then that's the most recent version of 'kate' you are going to get from CentOS. CentOS is not a bleeding-edge distribution that constantly keeps packages up to date with the upstream projects. If you want that, try another distribution like Fedora. The version of KDE in CentOS6 (which kate appears to be a part of) is unlikely to get upgraded to the version in CentOS7.

First you find out from wich package (rpm) your kate is. either you try to as yum: "yum search kate", or you do the full monty: locate the binary "type kate", usually /usr/bin/kate, then you ask rpm from which package this file comes: "rpm -qf /usr/bin/kate" take the main package name (the part before the version numbers) and feed it to yum: yum update [kate-package-name] YMMV, depening on what repos you have enabled or not. You can search most of what is available via pkgs.org, for kate, for example http://pkgs.org/search/kate then select "Centos 6" (maybe you have to scroll down for that) The EPEL repo seems to have version 0.3.8 of libkate at least.

First you find out from wich package (rpm) your kate is. either you try to as yum: "yum search kate", or you do the full monty: locate the binary "type kate", usually /usr/bin/kate, then you ask rpm from which package this file comes: "rpm -qf /usr/bin/kate" take the main package name (the part before the version numbers) and feed it to yum: yum update [kate-package-name] YMMV, depening on what repos you have enabled or not. You can search most of what is available via pkgs.org, for kate, for example http://pkgs.org/search/kate then select "Centos 6" (maybe you have to scroll down for that) The EPEL repo seems to have version 0.3.8 of libkate at least. Have a nice week. - Yamaban ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos yum install kdesdk-4.3.4-9.el6.x86_64 That is the version I installed previously and which contains a very old version of kate. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] Latest version of kate editor
I have installed the kate editor on Centos 6.7 but it seems to be a very old version, 3.3.4, installed as part of kdesdk. On Centos 7 I can simply run 'yum install kate' but, alas, not on Centos 6. What is the recommended way of updating kate on Centos 6? Thank you. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org https://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
