Bug ID: 356304
Summary: Kate Crashes On Startup
Product: kate
Version: unspecified
Platform: Kubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: application
Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: biplan...@outlook.com
If I try to start kate, it will spit out:
No docs r (or the only) opened right now --> disable menu
QWidget::setLayout: Attempting to set QLayout "" on KateMDI::ToolView "",
which already has a layout
No docs r (or the only) opened right now --> disable menu
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
And if I pass a file as a parameter, it will instead crash with:
No docs r (or the only) opened right now --> disable menu
QWidget::setLayout: Attempting to set QLayout "" on KateMDI::ToolView "",
which already has a layout
No docs r (or the only) opened right now --> disable menu
No docs r (or the only) opened right now --> disable menu

No docs r (or the only) opened right now --> disable menu
No docs r (or the only) opened right now --> disable menu
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
If I start it graphically with a shortcut, in KDE, it will create a single
frame whose only contents is what's behind it. This frame will live for a
fraction of a second and then an error message pops up.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Start Kate
2. Immediately crashes
Actual Results:
Kate crashes immediately.
Expected Results:
I can use Kate to write things :)
Purging all of its configuration files, or at least all the ones I know about
(under ~/.kde), doesn't have any effect whatsoever, neither does uninstalling
and reinstalling. This is under KDE 5, but every other application works fine.
If I start Kate with root privileges under sudo (eek!), it will launch and work
successfully, but that's not really a long term solution...
