Upgrading to kde6 broke markdown preview

Help
1

After upgrading to KUbuntu 24.10 Kate’s markdown document preview shows “no preview available” despite markdownpart being installed. Also, markdownpart doesn’t show up in System Settings > Default Applications > File Associations > Markdown > Embedding.

Kate version: 24.08.01
markdownpart apt package version: 23.08.5-0ubuntu3
KDE Frameworks version: 6.6.0
Plasma version: 6.1.5
Qt 6.6.2, Wayland.

sounds logical… you need markdownpart 24.08.01 I assume, doesn’t Kubuntu provide it? If not go tell 'em…

Yes, please ask Kubuntu to update markdownpart
