When I first tried using Kile in my new OS Ubuntu 11.04, it refused to insert math symbol selected from the left panel. So I removed the application and reinstalled again only now the program does not even run!
For published bug reports, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kile/+bug/772631. I am now
trying to downgrade the version of KIle now back to 2.0.
Tried first to install a beta 5 version (kile_2.1.0~svn2010122beta5-1ubuntu1~natty1~ppa1_amd64.deb) but it still does not execute??!).
Even the downgrade does not work even!
Will watch for developments on Kile.
In the meantime I have installed texmaker and trying out its capabilities. The important thing in Linux is the freedom to choose from various softwares. Now a dedicated Latex editor is not only for beginners of Latex, it can also be used as a productivity enhancement for intermediate and advanced users of Latex, when time is important. Of course we allow other people the freedom to say that real Latex users dont use dedicated Latex editors, Emacs or Vi will do!
February 19, 2012. Kile works now in my upgraded Ubuntu Oneiric Ocelot. But Kile is still in version 1.2.
