Cntl + D > Manage bookmarks does nothing.

This happens because of missing keditbookmarks

Workaround (due to Ondřej Buriánek (zerem) #4 ):

sudo apt-get install kde-baseapps-bin

Proposed solution: add keditbookmarks with the package. It is small, and almost every Krusader user will want it.

Request for KDE to put up a warning if dependency missing:

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300068

Same for konsole:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krusader/+bug/1003577

(now should have warning due to https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=300514)

but they said there that it was resolved (suggested dependencies would install by default) and that I should file a new bug, and maybe as:

- https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krusader/+bug/292273

but I am not sure since I don't know what is the applet he is talking about.

Status changed to 'Confirmed' because the bug affects multiple users.

Solution: install kde-baseapps-bin

sudo apt-get install kde-baseapps-bin

This has been a long time bug. The solution posted by Ondřej Buriánek (zerem) worked for me just now. BTW the package is not so huge. 2MB in my case where one dependency was also installed..
The following NEW packages will be installed:
  kde-baseapps-bin kde-baseapps-data

Confirming with Ubuntu 16.04.

As a workaround, uninstalling and installing krusader worked for me.
All my old bookmarks remained:

sudo apt-get remove krusader
sudo apt-get install krusader

update:
It seems to be related by the way of launching. When launched from the shell:
>>krusader

it works ok,
when launched from the shortcuts on the desktop or launcher - no reaction to the hotkeys.

Yes, adding "keditbookmarks" to the "depends" list would solve those puzzling "nothing happens and I don't know why" problems mentioned in the bug description.

In an article everyone could read:
"For example, trying to manage bookmarks fails as keditbookmarks was not installed on our GNOME based distro. "

It's necessary...
