I imagine the problem here is because of the lock file issue, but I'm not sure in which directory that lock file would be created. however. Unrelated, but the `Icon theme "breeze" not found.` line is also evident, as there is at least one missing icon in the global menu I can't reproduce this, did this get fixed? macOS Big Sur, using Kate 21.12.0. (In reply to Miepee from comment #2) > I can't reproduce this, did this get fixed? > macOS Big Sur, using Kate 21.12.0. I'm still having the same issue, even after upgrading to 21.12.0. When running the program from the terminal, output is practically identical to my last comment, with kf.config.core complaining that it couldn't lock some local file. Hmm, we just use KConfig, if that fails to work, this seems to be a more generic issue. (In reply to Christoph Cullmann from comment #4) > Hmm, we just use KConfig, if that fails to work, this seems to be a more > generic issue. There wouldn't be any sort of config files or anything that I could purge? When I tried the newest version from today: I moved the old kate.app to the trash and installed fresh from the dmg. If it can't be reproduced, I wonder if it's some issue with my specific setup. Do you know where kf.config.core makes a lock file? And for what it's worth, I cannot produce the same issue on Konsole for this Mac. There's no complaints about a lock file or kf.config.core Could you try this with a more recent build?

Kate Crash Logs 040723
I just tried with the last successful build (#1994 in my case, built today), and now Kate will crash upon launch. Unlike Kate's Linux version, Mac OS doesn't output Kate's stdout messages on the terminal, so finding log output is a bit difficult. But I was able to save the crash logs from console.app. Since this is now another issue, I'm considering writing a new bug report since now Kate won't launch at all.
