--- Comment #1 from Friedrich W. H. Kossebau <kosse...@kde.org> --- Sounds by that error text like the plugin location is not searched for by kate, that is seen usually in that case. Where exactly have you installed the files, which prefix (e.g. what is the value of CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX)? If you have not installed to the normal system path (/usr), you might need to also set the env var QT_PLUGIN_PATH to point to some base path where the actual plugin binary is (".../plugins"). Compare https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Build_from_source#Set_up_the_runtime_environment for general notes. Given you said you installed using "sudo", I assume though you want to install the plugin system wide. For that pass "-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr" to cmake, or consider forcing at least the kpart plugins into the Qt installation paths by using the cmake flag "-DKDE_INSTALL_USE_QT_SYS_PATHS=TRUE". Plkease report if that solved your case (ideally including which paths you used, so I get a better idea about your problems and could extract something to add to the README.md) :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
