Hello,

I work in a large CMake project with 900+ executables, 6 million + lines of=
 code and a bunch of other misc. stuff.=C2=A0 I have been using for the las=
t 18 months the KDevelop appimage of version 5.6.1 successfully.=C2=A0 I us=
e a specific cmake version located at /usr/local/bin/cmake.=C2=A0 No issues=
 with the appimage.=C2=A0

When I try to use the latest Flatpak version 5.11 it will not use my cmake =
version.=C2=A0 I changed it in both the global location under settings -> c=
onfigure kdevelop -> cmake as well as project -> configure project -> cmake=
 -> show advanced -> cmake executable.=C2=A0 The project setting will not k=
eep the executable I point to.=C2=A0 It always defaults back to /app/bin/cm=
ake.

I do not use kdevelop to build, but when the build configuration fails due =
to cmake errors the project is not parsed and there fore kdevelops code und=
erstanding is broken.=C2=A0 This essentially defeats the purpose of an IDE =
as I am sure you are aware.

Is there anything I can do to make this work?=C2=A0 Anything I can do to he=
lp if it is an issue?=C2=A0 I use neovim when not in kdevelop, and do not w=
ant to use vscode.

My OS is oracle linux 8 on the 5.4 linux kernel using the gnome desktop.

Thank You,

Ryan
