Again, apologies for top posting. The standalone ProtonMail webapp allows nothing else
without an enormous amount of cutting and pasting.
Re. running KPDF:
It opens to a blank screen, but that's no surprise. If I try to ask it to load a file,
I get this

Asking because this is a very likely scenario where r14-xdg-update could screw up.
