--- Comment #1 from Nate Graham <nate at kde.org> ---
Thanks for the bug report!

One issue per bug report, please. See

Will be fixed by https://phabricator.kde.org/D15154

> "Save As" is ready
This is a Flatpak or GTK portal issue, not a KDE issue.

This is Debian packaging issue, not a KDE issue.

Yeah, this is messy and ugly, but sadly necessary given the interaction between
GNOME's gvfs, KIO, and Flatpak. Fixing this is sort of a long-term goal that's
on everyone's radar screens, but not something I can promise you relief for
soon, sorry.


So let's use this bug to track this issue:

> I am unable to open files in Okular "normally" (by double-clicking, or
> dragging and dropping into an open Okular Window). 
Can you please tell me the full path to the file on your computer? Is it local,
or located on another disk, a Samba share, or an NFS mount or something?

Oh, and are you using GNOME?
