Created attachment 2020381 [details] Copy of the message on my screen when I try to run and work with my favorite text editotr for LaTeX I used to be working with the text editor Kile for LaTex, it works perfectly on Fedora 39, but now the same version of kile(2.9.93) cannot work with fedora 40. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Kile 2.9.93 How reproducible: 1.It's impossible to start it, because we have the message that you can read on the joined picture of my screen, when I try to work with Kile. Actual results: picture joined
So Okular was silently upgraded to a KF6 version, breaking Kile which expects a KF5 OkularPart. Applications shipping commonly used KParts (Okular, Konsole, Kate, …) should always come with a compat package when upgrading them to a new major version using a new major Qt/KF version, and the subpackages for the KParts should always be versioned so that dependent packages will keep using the same version even if the main application is upgraded to a new one.
Looks like the best course of action is to upgrade Kile to 2.9.94 (3.0b4), which is now KF6-based. I still think it sucks that no compat KF5 OkularPart is available in the repository, but that will at least work around the issue for Kile (since it is clear that the Okular maintainers do not give a darn).
