Fixed downstream Ah no, sorry. We fixed installing look and feel packages, but the error message is still there. It happens for all plugins installed in /usr/lib/qt/plugins/kcms, but doesn't seem to cause any actual issue. Cool, then I won't mind if you close this ticket. But it would be better if you could remove that error message :) |
