Description Erich Seifert 2013-02-10 14:51:57 UTC

Obviously, KDE's katepart component uses floating point number for checking its plugins. So, if a plugin defines 4.3 it will be rejected because 4.3 > 4.10. For me, "highlight selection" plugin was affected by this issue.

The patch that was proposed upstream (see URL) is working for me and should be added to a new kde-base/katepart-4.10.0-r1 ebuild.

Patch was accepted upstream and will be fixed in 4.10.1
