Created attachment 135833 [details] Backtrace SUMMARY Kate crashes when closing a file that was deleted externally. I went through the "Report bug" steps, but the wizard claimed the report was not useful, unless I installed the debugging symbols. It could only install the first debugging symbols bundle/library, and the other three failed with: ``` [] RESOLVED "kate;4:20.12.2-0xneon+20.04+focal+build15;amd64;installed:user_focal-focal-main" "kate-dbgsym;4:20.12.2-0xneon+20.04+focal+build15;amd64;installed:user_focal-focal-main" 1 [] FileResolver(0x5635761b0c60) ++ packages for "kate;4:20.12.2-0xneon+20.04+focal+build15;amd64;installed:user_focal-focal-main" "kate-dbgsym;4:20.12.2-0xneon+20.04+focal+build15;amd64;installed:user_focal-focal-main" [] RESOLVED "" "" 2 [] RESOLVED "" "" 3 [] RESOLVED "" "" 4 [] candidates ("kate-dbgsym", "kate-dbg", "kate-dbg", "kate-dbgsym") [] FileResolver(0x5635761b0c60) found "kate;4:20.12.2-0xneon+20.04+focal+build15;amd64;installed:user_focal-focal-main" [] ("neon-repositories-ubuntu-ddebs") [] "[repository::system/os/package/org.kde.neon.com.ubuntu.ddebs]> name: Ubuntu Debug Symbols | summary: Debug Symbols for Ubuntu | package: neon-repositories-ubuntu-ddebs" [] ("org.kde.neon.com.ubuntu.ddebs") 1 [] files: ("/usr/bin/kate", "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libKF5TextEditor.so.5", "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Widgets.so.5", "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5") ``` Given that failure, I'm attaching the backtrace directly. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. `echo 1 > bug.txt` 2. `kate bug.txt` 3. `rm bug.txt` 4. Switch to Kate, which should detect the file having been deleted 5. Click the "Close" button OBSERVED RESULT Kate crashes SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE neon 5.21 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.79.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2

() from /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5 Unfortunately this is not very useful without debug symbols. If the wizard didn't work, you'll need to install 'em manually using the `apt` package manager. The appropriate package is probably named something like "libKF5TextEditor-dbg" Then after that's done you can reproduce the crash and attach a new backtrace. Thanks!
I'm getting "libKF5TextEditor-dbg". Can you reproduce the bug?
Sorry, I'm getting "E: Unable to locate package libKF5TextEditor-dbg" (Konsole didn't copy when I pressed Ctrl+Insert, but that's another issue)

Looks like this was fixed. I can no longer reproduce, and I'm not sure what I meant at step 5, Click the "Close" button. There is no such button now, except for the 'x' button of the pop-up notifying of the file being deleted. Clicking that does nothing, and that's OK.
