By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Description Darrell 2014-10-07 21:02:11 CDT 
With the recent mime changes, kate no longer auto-recognizes shell scripts, unless the file uses an .sh extension.

To verify:

* Temporarily rename $TDEHOME/share/apps/kate/metainfo.
* Start kate.
* Open a shell script that does not use an extension.
* Verify the shebang is either /bin/sh or /bin/bash.
* Verify no syntax highlighting.
Comment 1 Darrell 2014-10-07 21:02:56 CDT 
When I revert to a package set from Oct. 1 that still uses kmimemagic, kate auto-recognizes shell scripts.
Comment 2 Darrell 2014-10-07 21:09:08 CDT 
I verified the bug is not profile remnants. A fresh profile exhibits the same bug.
Comment 3 Timothy Pearson 2014-10-08 00:46:13 CDT 
This had the same root cause as the Konqueror unknown file type issue; Kate didn't know what to do with the newer mimetypes and therefore didn't load any syntax rules files.

This should be fixed in GIT hash a44c924; please test and confirm.

Thanks!
