Bug ID: 352657
Summary: Synctex: synchronization between PDF viewer (okular)
and text editor (kate) doesn't work in current version
of okular
Product: okular
Version: 0.23.0
Platform: Debian unstable
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: okular-devel@kde.org
Reporter: bugrep...@tronel.org
Synctex: synchronization between PDF viewer (okular) and text editor (kate)
doesn't work in current version of okular.
The bug is due to a change of the parameters accepted by kate.
kate used to accept the "--use" option. This option has disappeared.
When configured with kate in the editor settings, okular still calls kate by
passing the
"--use" option.
This should be changed (the "--use" option is now implicit).
I have attached a patch.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compile a Latex document with pdflatex and activate synctex (e.g. put a
\synctex=1 in the preamble of the document).
2. Open the resulting PDF with okular.
3. Configure okular so that it uses "kate" as editor ("Settings -> Configure
Okular -> Editor -> Kate).
4. Left mouse button + shift in any part of document should launch a instance
of kate to edit the corresponding .tex document.
5. With the current version of okular, nothing happens.
6. On the console a "--use unknown option" message appears.
Actual Results:
With the current version of okular, nothing happens.
On the console a "--use unknown option" message appears.
Expected Results:
Kate should be launched.
Apply the following patch:
