I'm afraid I do not have time until later today to post instructions, but what I would need to know is the value of QString languageCode on line 147: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-welcome/-/blob/master/src/release.cpp?ref_type=heads#L147 This can be found using GDB, placing a breakpoint on that line in release.cpp and printing the contents of the variable, which might be complex due to being a QString. I will provide better instructions later today. Alternatively, Welcome Center could be built with qDebug() << languageCode; inserted below that line, and it would print it when ran in the terminal. Unfortunately I'm unable to reproduce the issue after changing the language and restarting. I assume that the 'tr' language code is correctly inserted into the URL. We'd need to know the language code that it detects on your system. Unfortunately placing a GDB breakpoint wouldn't work because release builds appear to optimise it away. You'd need to build plasma-welcome yourself, and then place a qDebug() that prints the language code. I'll add a way for release builds to log this information. If you're unwilling or unable to build a modified application yourself, we would at least be able to know when 6.6 releases, and more easily as well for any future such issues that occur. A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-welcome/-/merge_requests/232 Git commit 1e20b74e7945c22e47ad86c593afd6ce5c945881 by Oliver Beard. Committed on 03/11/2025 at 22:06. Pushed by olib into branch 'master'. Add logging categories and enhanced logging This commit adds proper support for Qt logging categories to Welcome Center. Additional logging is added to KDED for what we're doing when we're launching, as we've seen bugs or non-obvious behaviour in this area before. In order to help with release preview localisation issues (see: CCBUG), logging is also added to Release::getPreview().

Just run it in a terminal with:
plasma-welcome --post-update
and you should see it.
