Opening dialogs such as the "application launcher" when XMonad is used as a window manager fails. Most of the time, the dialog fails to appear, or is immediately closed when it does, This regression was introduced by Plasma Framework version 5.47.0. Reverting 11f4e5b392acade56ad240f695f66eb42377e57c on plasma-framework.git (the commit introduced by bugfix 381242) seems to fix the issue. Related: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=381242 ## Reproducible ? Successfully reproduced on clean and up to date KDE build, with empty XMonad configuration file, and empty KDE configuration. ## Steps to reproduce 1/ Install XMonad, and set XMonad as the window manager for KDE: echo "export KDEWM=/usr/bin/xmonad" >> ${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/plasma-workspace/env/wm.sh 2/ [Optional] Move the "dashboard panel" to the top of the screen. I have found the bug to be significantly more likely when the panel is at the top of the screen. 3/ Re-launch KDE. 4/ Repeatedly attempt to open dialogs on the dashboard panel, e.g. the application launcher. Most of the time, the dialogs will not appear, or will be closed immediately. ## Versions KDE Frameworks 5.47.0, KDE Plasma 5.13, and XMonad 0.13.
And here's the related reports on XMonad's github: https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/issues/174#issuecomment-406886552
Is this still relevant with the latest version of plasma-framework? If so, I see various patches in https://github.com/xmonad/xmonad/issues/174#issuecomment-406886552. WOuld you or anyone else be willing to upstream them, if they're appropriate?
