[Bug 254656] [NEW] Kate does not start when set as the default editor for a paticular file extention

[Michael Lueck]

Public bug reported:

I prefer Kate as my default text editor. In 7.04, I had adjusted various
file extensions to open Kate as the default editor. I wished to do so on
8.04 workstations, and found it not working. If I put the editor back to
"Text Editor" then the default text editor does launch.

I verified that kate never starts via "sudo ps aux"... kate does not
show up.

I found a work around to this problem... in the file association dialog,
create a new association, and type in "kate" into the "Use custom
command" field.

So, there seems to be some problem with the provided selection for Kate
in Ubuntu 8.04.

Please let me know if there is further information I could provide that
would assist.

Thanks!
