Bug ID: 368770
Summary: Kate uses default Qt File Dialog *not KDE file dialog*
which breaks tons of features, including KIO
Product: kate
Version: 16.04.1
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: mj...@mit.edu
packages from kubuntu 16.04.1 with backports
Kate version 15.12.3
KDE Frameworks 5.23.0
Qt 5.5.1 (built against 5.5.1)
Since upgrading KDE to KDE5 from kubuntu/backports a major showstopper was
introduced. The File open/save dialogs are no longer the KDE dialogs but the
ultra-simplistic standard QtFileDialog. This means:
* no KIO/remote files
* no copy&paste or typing of a URL
* no "places"
* ....
I was so far completely unable to debug the issue as I am not on top of all the
Qt5/KDE framworks-plugin mechanism. But I am very willing to help track this
down if I can get some help! Kwrite shows the same behaviour, while (strangely)
Gwenview opens the proper KDE dialog.
Please let me know how I can help!
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. open kate
2. click file-> open
3.
Actual Results:
Shows simplistic Qt File Dialog
Expected Results:
Shows KDE File Dialog with all bells and whistles
Also happens with a newly created user account (so no stale KDE config files
from before the move to KDE5)
