Running that config file loaded fine for me If you can reproduce, can I have a backtrace please. and include plasmashellrc it contains the panel sizes I am no longer able to reproduce the issue, though it was 100% reproducible the other day. :( Will re-open and attach more info if it happens again. |
Created attachment 125910 [details] Broken config file Everything from git master, but reproducible in Plasma 5.18 too STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have a vertical panel on the left side with an IOTM in it 2. Right-click on that panel > Add Panel > Default Panel OBSERVED RESULT Plasmashell crashes and does not start again EXPECTED RESULT It works ADDITIONAL INFORMATION If I manually edit ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc and remove all traces of the newly-added default panel, plasma starts again. However if I was a regular user and did not know how to do this, my conclusion would be that the system was irreparably broken and I would never want to use it again. I'm attaching the plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc file that makes plasma crash and be unable to launch.
