Description of problem: Following the Mageia 6 updates of 2018-05-13, kate 17.12.2 stopped working as flawlessly as before. Two bug reports were posted, copied below, and a response was received, also copied below. The maintainer noted that the flaws were a temporary regression, now fixed. See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=394254 The current version seems to be 17.12.3 (Ubuntu). The bugs will disappear with the version upgrade. Bug 1: Search in Files and Build bring up the corresponding plugin panels and work well, but clicking on the Search and Replace and Build Output buttons does nothing. They should remove (minimize) the respective panel. ESC does remove both the panels but subsequent clicks on the persistent buttons serve only to change their color. Bug 2: When both Symbol List and Document plugins are selected together the (first chosen?) button works once only the first time and the other just changes color. Response from maintainer: This is fixed - this regression was only temporary in the KMultiTabBar, but never released. Maybe Mageia released an updated version which has this regression. Please update.

(In reply to Nicolas Lécureuil from comment #1) > yes, I plan to update to 17.12.3 in a near future. Kate 17.12.2 package is causing serious trouble in Mageia 6. I have submitted a new bug today, but now I see the problem was already know. Please, consider removing this package, even if the fix is not ready yet. Installing it will damage the system.

The problem appears fixed in cauldron (v18.04.1) but it affects v17.12.2, it would be nice if this could be fixed before the 6.1 isos are released. The bug means that almost all kate plugins are unusable because their tab buttons do not work.

Mageia 6 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2019-09-30. It is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we weren't able to fix it before Mageia 6's end of life. If you are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. If you would like to help fixing bugs in the future, don't hesitate to join the packager team via our mentoring program [1] or join the teams that fit you most [2].

This bug disappeared long ago, before Mageia 7, but nobody bothered to note the fact. Myself included, sorry!.
