Preview stuck

Get Hot New Stuff dialog used to display preview icons just fine. Now on 2 separate systems, it gets stuck on "Loading Preview" and the preview is never loaded. Using latest stuff from KDE Neon 16.04

commit  04cc49c71bdb948e06ccae2d97d7cc1a1d2f62af broke that ..

I can confirm reverting it makes things work again.

Ok, so no updates on this? Should you then revert the offending commit that caused this?
Comment 5 Aleix Pol 2017-10-22 23:13:58 UTC
The patch is correct, reverting it would have other regressions. It's just a symptom of a different bug.

Fixed in c32c8d002e1216373560c94738841a7a5e1b976b if we need to change it some other way to set the preview with a separate method that doesn't detach we can do that, but this fixes the issue here at least.
