[Pkg-kde-extras] Bug#536297: kile: Missing Working Directory Causes Spurious Errors

[Zachary Palmer]

Package: kile
Version: 1:2.0.1-1
Severity: normal


If kile's working directory does not exist, it is incapable of opening 
new files.  It also produces an error message whenever a file is 
compiled, although a successful compile will display the file 
appropriately.

To reproduce this bug is simple:

mkdir /tmp/kilebug
cd /tmp/kilebug
kile &
# Open a .tex file in Kile and verify that everything is working.
cd /
rmdir /tmp/kilebug
# Try to open a .tex file in Kile and observe that it will fail.
