SUMMARY

Hello,
I use the CPU usage plasmoid in my task bar so that it's always visible.
Since a recent update, the bars do not show : I see 2 bars of 1 pixel wide.
So the main interest of the applet is gone :(
I attached a screeshot of before vs now (luckily I had a few screenshots of my screen from before).
I waited like 3 weeks to see if an update would solve it. I also tried removing and adding again the applet without success.

I use the current Archlinux version. Plasma is with Breeze Theme, just a custom color scheme.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. add the CPU applet in the task bar

OBSERVED RESULT
CPU bars do not show  (I can see only 1 purple and 1 green line of 1 pixel wide)

EXPECTED RESULT
CPU bars for all cores are displayed, and not 1 pixel wide (see screenshot)
