Description Max Schaefer 2015-03-26 11:39:07 UTC
Any shortcut I use in Kate gives me this error (SHORTCUT HERE was inserted by myself):

The key sequence 'SHORTCUT HERE' is ambiguous. Use 'Configure Shortcuts'
from the 'Settings' menu to solve the ambiguity.
No action will be triggered.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Kate
2. Attempt to use a shortcut (Ctrl+C, Ctrl+S, etc)

Actual Results:  
The key sequence 'Ctrl+S' is ambiguous. Use 'Configure Shortcuts'
from the 'Settings' menu to solve the ambiguity.
No action will be triggered.

Expected Results:  
Shortcut actions occurring as normal.

I am on latest Arch Linux official packages as of the 26th of March 2015.
I have reset shortcuts in both Kate and the Application Keyboard Shortcuts in System Settings.

Hello,

I confirm this bug (with plasma 5.3). I'm also using Archlinux.
It is not limited to Kate though as similar problems occur  with gwenview.

This bug seems to be the same as Bug 343665: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=343665
Comment 4 pietz 2015-07-22 23:48:52 UTC
I also can confirm this. Please fix this fast! I am wondering why none of the developers uses shortcuts in kate and gets an error message... What editor do you use? Maybe I should switch, too :-)
Comment 5 Kåre Särs 2015-07-23 06:09:25 UTC
This is probably a distro dependent thing as the shortcuts work OK on Kubuntu...
