Cannot reproduce. Does this happen with all cursor themes, or just a specific one? Now I can reproduce by applying any cursor theme, but not consistently. Sometimes the crash occurs, sometimes it does not even if the same theme is applied again. Here I'm able to reproduce the crash by changing the cursor theme with double-click a few times in sequence. I tried to select themes by double clicking for at least two minutes and did not encounter any crash. I just installed updated on Neon Unstable and am on Wayland too.

Well, the crash persists. Noticed something possibly relevant:
I have some cursor themes from KDE Store available for selection in the grid but only one of them is marked as installed in GHNS window. Please see the attached screenshot.

Maybe those are installed through global themes. Please check if you have global themes that match the cursor themes that are not marked as installed in the KNS dialog
Not sure why, but now I was able to reproduce the issue. I will look into it. Glad you can reproduce. :) I think global themes are not related because all cursor themes seen in my screenshot were installed directecly via 'Get new cursors' window. But my third-party global themes are: layan mondrian dark sweet >Glad you can reproduce. :)
Weirdly enough, I tried to add some debug output and now can not reproduce. When reproducing the issue originally, I marked a theme for deletion and then double clicked another one. Though the deletion part was accidental. The stacktrace was identical to the one you posted. Could you maybe share a video of you triggering the crash? Not sure if that will be useful, but maybe it can give me a hint.
On the plus side, we now know that it is not specific to your setup :)

I suspect this may have the same root cause as Bug 453027: it tries to contact the server to get the preview image, fails due to an invalid cached URL for that theme, and then crashes. Would be good to check again if and when Bug 453027 is fixed. I don't think that is related, because we have the images already downloaded here. I haven't reproduced it, but I saw another bug with the same timer which gave a good clue. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 456526 *** |
