[UPDATE] Kate without syntax highlighting and crashing after P6 update

Everything works here so far, after the Plasma 6 update,
except for kate, and it seems to be related to syntax highlighting.

Opening a simple html file, syntax highlighting doesn’t work,
and when I go to Tools > Highlighting > Markup (or Scripts), there’s no option for HTML

When I scroll down the text, kate suddenly closes.

syntax-highlighting is installed, and

pacman -Ql syntax-highlighting

shows me the configuration files for it to work are there:

/usr/share/org.kde.syntax-highlighting/syntax-bundled/html.xml

but it seems kate isn’t findind them.

Don’t know if it’s a compilation issue, or maybe a symlink somewhere would solve the problem.

Did anyone elso notice this?

[UPDATE]

Installed syntax-highlighting-git, and this partially solved the problem:

1. kate doesn’t crash
2. going to Tools > Highlighting > Markup, HTML (and a bunch of other options) is there again

But syntax-highlighting doesn’t work still, at least not automatically;

I have to manually choose the Highlighting in Tools menu, then it works.

Some progress, at least.

Trying to recompile kate now, let’s see how it goes.

[UPDATE 2]

Nope, recompiling kate did nothing.

Also tried to clean .local/share/kate and .config/kate
