This happens because KDED is restarted during installation, which causes the autostart service to start and launch Welcome Center again. https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-welcome/-/blob/master/src/kded/daemon.cpp#L24 KDED should probably not be restarted during installation or upgrade, and so it'll need to be identified why this is happening and if it is necessary. I don't think there's a good way to workaround this in plasma-welcome. Hmm, but until the live session feature was merged yesterday, this wasn't happening. So it seems like something there changed to trigger the bug. (In reply to Nate Graham from comment #2) > Hmm, but until the live session feature was merged yesterday, this wasn't > happening. So it seems like something there changed to trigger the bug. Actually, I believe it was - during the first stages of installation Welcome Center appeared. This was on the 19th, and I had figured out then that KDED was restarted. For me it popped up again after reboot I do not have a plasma-welcomerc at all (In reply to David Redondo from comment #4) > For me it popped up again after reboot > I do not have a plasma-welcomerc at all Fixed with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-welcome/-/merge_requests/87. Welcome Center would always autostart in live installer mode after merging the live session feature. The issue with Welcome Center appearing during installation due to KDED being restarted persists. Git commit 0900adab34464da2a970b9e3f5843feeb9e163ef by Nate Graham, on behalf of Oliver Beard. Committed on 22/06/2023 at 14:21. Pushed by ngraham into branch 'master'. kded/daemon: Fix assuming LiveEnvironment and improve handling LiveEnvironment, when missing, was given a default value of true instead of false by mistake. This caused Welcome Center to always open. M +1 -1 src/kded/daemon.cpp https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-welcome/-/commit/0900adab34464da2a970b9e3f5843feeb9e163ef |
