Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.6.1) 
OS:                Linux

I installed kde 4.6.1 through the Kubuntu repositories on two completely
different computers (one laptop and one desktop) and both have exactly
the same effect. "Load last-used session" is selected, however when you
close the window and reopen it, the session is either not saved upon
close or not resumed upon reopen.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
I have a feeling this doesn't affect other versions, but only kubuntu, so:
1) Install KDE 4.6 from ppa:kubuntu-ppa/backports
2) Select "Load last-used session" in the preferences
3) Open one or more files
4) Close and reopen kate


OS: Linux (i686) release 2.6.35-28-generic
Compiler: cc

Somehow I fixed the problem. I clicked on Sessions > Quick open session

saved from before the kde 4.6 upgrade and now it works as expected.

Also, before this was fixed, I noticed that the "recent documents" were
not saving either.

Hopefully this helps someone trying to debug this error.

If that works for you now, that is fine, I guess we won't find there any
error, as we can't reproduce, too.

This bug actually still exists for me even after OS reinstall. When
telling kate to remember the last session, the "Last Session" variable
of ~/.kde/share/config/katerc should change from blank to
"mysession.katesession", but this doesn't happen, so when you open up
kate, it always starts with a new window. I tried manually editing the
above file with that value, but upon one of the updates it got
overwritten again.

See the following question I opened on askubuntu:
http://askubuntu.com/questions/57855/how-do-i-get-kate-to-restore-last-
used-session

Another way to reproduce this bug:

1) In ~/.kde/share/config/katerc change the Last Session line to "Last Session=" with nothing after it
2)  Open Kate and set it to remember "load last-used session" (if it isn't already)
3) Open a file with Kate and close and reopen the window
