SUMMARY Backward search from okular does not work in some cases. Basically if one starts from okular and kile is open. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Start okular with some pdf file produced by pdflatex and start kile. 2. Backward search from okular (configured to go to kile) OBSERVED RESULT It goes to the right source file in kile but not to the right line. EXPECTED RESULT Go to the right file and line. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora 40 with KDE KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.2 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Backward search works with kate, kwrite, and texstudio. It also works if kile is not open.
Actually it works also with the Document Viewer.
If it helps, when I try backward search from okular and kile is open, the tex file is open in kile if it wasn't but it does not go to right line. The following is shown in the terminal where kile was opened: qt.dbus.integration: QDBusConnection: couldn't handle call to setLine, no slot matched qt.dbus.integration: QDBusConnection: couldn't handle call to setLine, no slot matched qt.dbus.integration: Could not find slot MainAdaptor::setLine If kile was not open, it works fine and those lines do not appear.
