SUMMARY After updating my AppImage from 5.6.0 to 5.6.1 the snippets plugin is not available anymore. In plugins settings it is not available and the tool view is also gone STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start KDevelop 5.6.0 AppImage 2. Configure Snippets 3. Close 3. Start KDevelop 5.6.1 AppImage OBSERVED RESULT Snippets Tool View gone. EXPECTED RESULT Snippets still there. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: KUbuntu 18.04 LTS, but AppImage (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: bundled with AppImage? Qt Version: bundled with AppImage? ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In Kdevelop in Debian GNU/Linux bookworm/sid (x86_64), version 5.8.220401 (22.04.1) snippets are not available too.
I can't find Snippets even on Flathub version: 5.9.220803 (22.08.3). In fact I can't find a version with snippets. Thank you, Riccardo
The Snippets plugin actually comes from the Kate package: /usr/lib/qt/plugins/ktexteditor/katesnippetsplugin.so is owned by kate 22.08.3-1 So just install Kate and perhaps a separate Kate plugin package. The Snippets plugin should become available then. I don't know if the system-wide plugin will be picked up by AppImage and Flatpak versions though.
On Debian, after installing packaged Kate and Kdevelop, snippets are available. But using Appimage is not enough to activate the plugin: no snippets on Appimage. Thank you!
