** Description changed: + [Impact] + + * Quite disruptive to a users workflow if they depend on kate opening files in a tab in the existing window. + * The fix is a simple and easily backported patch. + + [Test Case] + + * Open one or more files in Kate + * Trigger kate to open another file externally. For example, a text file opened via the file manager. + * File should open in a new kate tab in existing window. + + + [Regression Potential] + + * A simple already upstream applied patch. This was only not applied to + the KDE 19.04 git branch, as it has already received its final release. + + * Testers should spend some time testing the other functionality they + use to provide evidence that there is no apparent regression. In + particular, opening/saving files etc. + + + ***** Original bug text ***** + Release: eoan (also disco, if Qt is updated to 5.12 via kubuntu- backports) See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=410742 This bug is already fixed in kate 19.08.x, however eoan still ships 19.04.3. The fix is relatively simple (see https://cgit.kde.org/kate.git/commit/?id=636af882e3c936411f56069585940901b39628d1).
