Description Steve 2024-09-24 23:22:08 UTC

SUMMARY
When running under Wayland smb4k does not display a menu in the global menu widget. If the widget is removed then the app does not fallback to displaying in it's own window.
This behavior is not present under x11.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot into KDE Plasma 6.1 on Wayland
2. Launch Smb4k

OBSERVED RESULT
No menu is present

EXPECTED RESULT
Either the global menu, or application menu are present

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux (6.10.10-arch1-1 (64-bit))
KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.5
KDE Frameworks Version:  6.6.0
Qt Version:  6.7.2

Disregard - reading a similar bug (492437) I realized that I was missing two packages after a fresh install:

* plasma5-integration
* kwayland5

Thanks for the information. However, it's strange that you need Plasma 5 packages for this to work ...

Yes I'm unsure exactly why they were needed, but I'm pretty new KDE so perhaps there's some information I'm missing.
I thought the plasma5 packages were only needed for older QT applications and some GTK outliers.
