Leap 15.2 KDE file associations
On a recent Leap 15.2 install, I seem not to be able to get KDE to remember file associations. More specifically, which application to run for the file. If I select a file in Konqueror, and then select an application in the dialog Konqueror provides, and click the box that says to remember this, when I click again on that same file, it once again asks which application to use. It never remembers the association. It does run the application after I select it. But never again unless I select the application again. When I say that the association should be remembered, I get the status window saying that something is being updated. There is no error. In the X log, I see this when the association is selected and being remembered: kbuildsycoca4 running... So if there is an error, it is not presented anywhere I see. Has anyone else seen this? -- Roger Oberholtzer

kbuildsycoca4 running... This already points at KDE/Qt4 application settings. Try the same process from Dolphin.
So if there is an error, it is not presented anywhere I see.
