Description Peter Ped Helcmanovsky 2022-12-02 16:28:18 UTC

Kalk starts with empty window with only hamburger menu visible

The hamburger menu contains four lines with empty checkbox + text: Calculator / Converter / Binary Calculator / About

When the items are clicked, the checkboxes get selected/unselected (usually on the item, but About does clear others and select About), but window content gets either empty (first three options) or it shows About screen (fourth option).

OS is relatively fresh reinstall of KDE Neon (after 5.26), Kalk is installed from .deb by aptitude, package version: 22.11-0xneon+22.04+jammy+release+build2
(behaves the same way also on previous 22.09-xneon... package, not regression)

It all looks like some WIP version from very early stage with just menu defined and about page and wrongly used checkboxes instead of highlighting active page. And about page content can be dragged by mouse up/down a bit as when scrolling on mobile phones with finger, bouncing back (I guess this comes for free by using Kirigami, but it makes the whole situation strangely extra ridiculous considering the whole calculator is missing, but there is useless wobbly scroll at about page :D fun).

(extra bug - just typo) BTW the deb package in aptitude shows as description "A powerful cross-platfrom calculator" (platFROM instead of platform).

"About" page content:
Calculator 22.11
...

can you paste the output of running kalk in terminal?

Looks like your distribution is missing the qml-module-qtfeedback dependency for this package

kalk package info in aptitude

the package origin URI is: http://archive.neon.kde.org/user/pool/main/k/kalk/kalk_22.11-0xneon%2B22.04%2Bjammy%2Brelease%2Bbuild2_amd64.deb
KDE neon - User Edition:jammy

Is this the right repo to report Neon issues as well, or is there more specific one?

Comment 5 Peter Ped Helcmanovsky 2022-12-03 00:57:03 UTC

installing qml-module-qtfeedback manually makes kalk to display the calculator.

It still feels somewhat unfinished/broken in small details, but at least seems to provide basic functionality.

Distro packaging issues will need to be filed with the distribution.
