Description drich 2020-01-10 12:21:43 UTC
SUMMARY
Clicking on Session->Start new session does nothing, creating new session using command line or by using the session picking dialog opens the existing session.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a session with some projects
2. Start a new session

OBSERVED RESULT
When running KDevelop from terminal, it shows "Running kdevelop instance (PID: 36703) detected, making this one visible instead of starting a new one".
When creating a new session from --new-session or --pick-session it simply opens the existing session, even if KDevelop was not already running.


EXPECTED RESULT
Being able to work using multiple sessions at a time


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: 
macOS: 
Linux: Debian unstable, Linux 5.4.0.1-amd64
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.90
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.12.5

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Tried deleting everything from kdevelop (.cache, .config, .local, etc) and purge then reinstall kdevelop, but with no effect


Thank you !

Hello,

This bug was actually caused by the Ryzen 3000 RDRAND bug (which always generate the same FFFFFFFFFF-FFFFF-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFFF UUID).
So not related to KDE at all, updating the BIOS was the fix!

Sorry for the inconvenience
