I have used kate for many years and, in particular, depend on the the text filter plugin. However it seems to have disappeared from kate 5.0. It was present in kate 3.14.1 which was packaged with Ubuntu 14.10, but when I upgraded to Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Verlet) and with it to kate 5.0.0, the text filter plugin was not offered (under Settings>Configure Kate...>Application>Plugins). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select Settings>Configure Kate...>Application>Plugins 2. 3. Actual Results: No "Text Filter" option is offered Expected Results: An option is offered labelled "Text Filter" with comment "Easy text filtering" as in previous versions of kate.
