Bug 471213

Hi All, 

I downloaded Kate Application for Mac OS from the following link:
https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/MacOS/job/Kate_Release_macos/

I opened dmg file and then installed the application in ~/Application. 

I am unable to open Kate, and it keeps on crashing with following Error:

Crashed Thread:        0  Dispatch queue: com.apple.main-thread

Application Specific Information:
*** multi-threaded process forked ***
crashed on child side of fork pre-exec

I have tried multiple builds of release versions and multiple builds of nightly versions, and the application keeps crashing.

I am using m1 mac and the OS Version is:           macOS 13.4 (22F66)

I was able to use this application for at least 6 months with an old dmg file on the same machine.

Unfortunately due to restrictions, I cannot provide the full crash log.
