Snap package install two .desktop application files. Kate should be packaged as --classic
Installed Kate via Snap. I get two Kate applications showing in the KDE Menu. Here are the Properties
env BAMF_DESKTOP_FILE_HINT=/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/kate_kate.desktop /snap/bin/kate -b %U
env BAMF_DESKTOP_FILE_HINT=/var/lib/snapd/desktop/applications/kate_org.kde.kate.desktop /snap/bin/kate -b %U
The main difference is some languages and the Icon= attribute.
Also, Kate snap prevents editing files outside of /home/user/ as well as dot files in /home/user/
According to Snap support, the package should install as --classic since this is an IDE. I am forced to install it from command line with the --devmode option so it works properly.
