Bug ID: 461235
Summary: Quickpreview + XeLaTex runs pdftex instead of XeLaTex
Classification: Applications
Product: kile
Version: 2.9.93
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR

SUMMARY
I'm currently having troubles with the QuickPreview tool. (not the LivePreview
one)
When setting it to XeLaTex (in order to manage packages like polyglossia), it
behaves as follows :
- When using it on an environment : kile uses pdftek instead of xelatex. Of
course, it doesn't work.
- When using it on a sub-document : kile uses xelatex, as expected, and... it
works (as expected)
This doesn't depend on the content of the document.
I observed the same behavior with LuaLaTex settings.
Setting "Quickpreview" to "XeLaTex" or to "XeLaTex + PDF (okular)" doesn't
change anything.
I had really no idea to fix the problem, as QuickPreview settings are (I guess)
not in kilerc file. So : how could I fix it ? Any idea ? Is it an internal bug
in the definition of quickpreview ?
Thanks for your help !

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. In config panel, Preview > Set first parameter to "XeLaTex" or "XeLaTex -->
PDF"
2. Run a quickpreview of an env with the package polyglossia : it runs the
following command : pdflatex -synctex=1 -interaction=nonstopmode
-output-directory=/tmp/kile-livepreview.ozSfBF modele.tex
3. Run a quickpreview of a subdoc : it uses xelatex : xelatex
-interaction=nonstopmode preview.tex
OBSERVED RESULT
As expected :
2. does not work, because it used pdftex
3. does work, because it used xelatex
EXPECTED RESULT
We expect 2. to use xelatex, and not pdftex
