Description mvevitsis 2023-01-13 10:08:57 UTC 
SUMMARY
KDE Connect for Mac OS no longer works after updating to latest version


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download latest version of kdeconnect-indicator.app from the KDE binary factory
2. Open .dmg and drag to applications; accept when it asks to replace existing app
3. Run app and select "configure" from the menu bar

OBSERVED RESULT
Error: "Could not find plugin kcm_kdeconnet"

EXPECTED RESULT
Opens configuration pane

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS: 13.1 (Ventura)


ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The app does not provide adequate information on how to remedy the problem, other than linking to the help page.
However, as far as I can tell, there is no Mac-specific help information for KDE connect.
Since this renders the app unusable, I have marked it as "Grave"
