Summary: Picking OK in the document renaming dialogue locks the
Kate session
Classification: Applications
Product: kate
Version: 20.12.2
Platform: Mint (Debian based)
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal

Screen shot of the response to the OK button in the rename module
SUMMARY
I am running Kate 20.12.2 as a Flatpak on Linux MInt Debrian Edition 5. When I
right click on a txt file that is open in Kate and pick rename and then
highlight the file name and pick OK, I get a dialogue box that says " This
action will overwrite 'document file path/filename.txt' with itself. Please
enter a new file name. The dialogue box and related buttons and actions are
unavailable.
None of the buttons work and I am unable to close the window or take any other
action. To shut this window down, I have to activate the "kill" command.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a text document in Kate
2. Right click on the document file name
3. Pick rename
4. Select OK
5. A dialogue box opens (see attachment)
OBSERVED RESULT
Picking OK effectively locks that session of Kate.
EXPECTED RESULT
The dialogue box as written is the expected result that should allow you to
either cancel out or input a new name
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
System: Kernel: 6.1.0-0.deb11.7-amd64 x86_64 bits: 64 compiler: gcc v:
10.2.1
Desktop: Cinnamon 5.6.8 tk: GTK 3.24.24 wm: muffin dm: LightDM
Distro: LMDE 5 Elsie
base: Debian 11.2 bullseye
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I am also running MX-23 AHS in a Gnome Box and there I have been unable to
replicate this bug. In MX-23, when I pick OK, the rename dialogue box shuts
down and when I close the file, I get another dialogue box asking if I want to
save the file. MX-23 is using Kate 22.12.3
After I complete this report, I found a similar report from 2022 that says it
was resolved but I am still experiencing an issue.
