Description Niccolò Venerandi 2024-02-14 22:02:11 UTC 
SUMMARY
Adding a Plasma 6-unsupported printer applet, I have to wait all of the 30 seconds before the splash screen disappears!


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log in to Plasma 5 session
2. Add Printer applet to the desktop
3. Switch to another session
4. Log-in to Plasma 6
5. Stare at a blank loading screen for 30 seconds

OBSERVED RESULT
I have to wait 30 seconds before the system is ready!

EXPECTED RESULT
I should not wait all the 30 seconds, and I should instead get to the desktop sooner.
