Description gigastarcraft2 2023-02-08 15:42:26 UTC
Recently I changed application style to one of options and everything with KDE crashed. Maybe I change GTK application style.
I deleted  ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc and now I have taskbar but everything else does not work.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Change Application Style to one of that replicate crash. (I cannot check it now bc settings crashes). I remember it was white.

OBSERVED RESULT
No taskbar, system settings, dolphin, discover crashes. No pop up menu on right click both on desktop and taskbar, appimages and flatpacks  works. It says system setting closed unexpectedly. I cannot report crash for the same reason. Crash handler also crashes.

EXPECTED RESULT
No problem when changing application style.

Ok, I solved this by manully changing application style back to Breeze... Nevertheless I think it should not happen.
"After manually editing widgetStyle=Breeze in ~/.config/kdeglobals everything is back to normal."

Application style that caused this is bb10bright.

This theme is broken and openSUSE should not ship it. Can you please open a bug report about it at https://bugzilla.opensuse.org and then paste a link to it here? Thanks!

Oh you're not on opensuse lol.

Still, the theme is broken and if it wasn't pre-installed, this needs to be reported to the theme maker.
