Description Drew 2018-05-13 04:47:57 UTC
Not sure if this is truly a Kile problem or a problem introduced by Ubuntu, but it is annoying that installation of Kile on Ubuntu Mate tries to force a full LaTeX installation when I only want a plain TeX system. This means I have to create a dummy LaTeX install first, then install a plain TeX system by hand.

Yep, there is nothing we can do about the Ubuntu package for Kile.

You have to report this issue in the Ubuntu bug tracker:
