Description Lukas Ruzicka 2025-08-07 12:00:29 UTC
The Favourites section in the KDE Plasma launcher is empty and does not have any icons in there.
This happens on Fedora Rawhide and it can be seen in this failed openQA test: 
https://openqa.fedoraproject.org/tests/3588708#step/desktop_browser/27
where the Firefox launcher is expected in there, but can never be found.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Fedora KDE Edition from the 20250806 nightly.
2. Go to the Favourites section.
3.  See that it is empty.

OBSERVED RESULT
No icons in the Favourites section.

EXPECTED RESULT
Default launchers in there.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Fedora Rawhide
KDE Plasma Version:  6.4.3-2
