Hi Ian, did you maybe update your system and not restart after the update? Or maybe you updated Qt but you didn't update it consistently? I'm just asking, since an inconsistent Qt installation might lead to this (see e.g. last comment in https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?format=multiple&id=1228577 ) This issue was already reported once half a year ago, but it doesn't look like a bug in Kate... Can you check your Qt installation? See possible duplicate: bug #349340 Hi Dominik, Sorry for slow response. Have been away. I have run package updates, twice. After several attempt I have found it tends to fail the first few times, then start working (not crashing). A ran kate from command line to see any messages. I am changing Mate desktop icon set from Oxygen to Mate and back again. Within kate the (red) 'X' icon next to Find entry field, is missing from the Mate icon set. That is why I changed the icon set. At first it just hangs kate - no graphics updates. I killed process (close window) after 3 minutes. I see the following messages, QXcbWindow: Unhandled client message: "_GTK_LOAD_ICONTHEMES" After 1 or 2 attempts, Kate stops crashing. Here I start kate and change icon set. It hangs for about 19 seconds, then recovers. I assume this is some time out limit. Changing icon set again while kate is running has no time out, it continues to run fine. Starting kate shows the following message, (kate:10992): Gtk-WARNING **: Theme directory of theme default.kde4 has no size field I have also run the plasma desktop, so all the kde rpm package are up to date. Hi, I am very sorry for the problem, but I think this is like bug 349340 an issue inside Qt. Please try to update to some recent Qt version (5.6 or better 5.7), if then this still happens, we can think about it, there were "many" XCB fixes in Qt since 5.5, which had serious issues. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 349340 *** Hi Christoph, I have repeated this on fedora 24, using Qt5.6. The icons change correctly. Issue solved. Thank you. Nice that it is solved for you, too! |
