Some time in the near past, I installed something that stopped kwrite and kate. This could have been installing kate itself which is when I discovered these text editors would not start-up again.
Error message is a pop-up window stating: "A KDE text-editor component could not be found". there is not other error message.
I have tried starting these application using dbus-launch and get a little more information, reporting:
but apparently kded is still running, so this could be a false diagnosis.
but before I dive down into the rabbit hole I thought it best f I ask advice of analyzing the fault, or how I could force a re-installation of these applications, and their dependencies (zypper in -f xxxx) only does package, not prerequisites to some level below?
Any help much appreciated.
System: OpenSuse 13.1
