If broken please report in the comments, that is what they are for; I actually have fixed it recently. I maintain the package, and I use and need it. "totally unneeded" I want to refute, since "official" kate refuses to run as root (and for me also under sudo!). If you thin "totally uneeded", please argue why. With the recent change to Qt6/ kf6 I have not followed yet, since it is a major change and I am at travel now and do not want to break my system with a major upgrade. I will come back to it later. Please do not accept the deletion request. On Sat, 09 Mar 2024 23:19:40 +0000, notify@aur.archlinux.org wrote:

Currenty broken. But also completely unneeded.
Repo's kate fully supports prompting the user for root write access, and also can open files via the admin:// protocol (if extra/kio-admin package is installed).
