Description Patrick Silva 2020-07-23 19:23:08 UTC 
SUMMARY
When I add Disk Usage widget to my desktop, it only shows information from parttions mounted on boot. Additional partitions not mounted on boot are omitted
even if they are manually mounted via Dolphin before I add the widget to desktop.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. boot a system with additional partitions that are not mounted on boot
2. add Disk Usage widget do desktop
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Disk Usage widget doesn't show information from partitions that
were not mounted on boot.

EXPECTED RESULT
Disk Usage widget should show information from all partitions available
at the time it is added to desktop.

Confirmed with 5.26.1 by mounting a flash drive with multiple partitions and mounting each one of those. 5.27 is probably the same. Plasmashell has to be restarted or the widget has to be removed and re-added from the Add Widget panel for it to show the updated info.
