Description Sienile 2023-10-21 22:55:08 UTC

SUMMARY
When using Krusader on a non-KDE DE, image previews do not appear.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Krusader on a system without a full KDE install.
2. Open any folder with valid image files.
3. Check "Show Previews" from the "View" menu.

OBSERVED RESULT
Standard icons remain and no preview is shown, although they appear to load because of a progress bar that appears.

EXPECTED RESULT
Standard icons will change to the image previews.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows: not tested
macOS: not tested
Linux: Ubuntu 23.04 / Gnome Flashback 3.44.0-1ubuntu2
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: N/A
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.104.0
Qt Version: 5.15.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The previews will show if you install libkf5konq6 and then restart Krusader. This is not a listed dependency. It should at least be in the Recommended list.

Not an issue with the current master version of Krusader using KF6.
