SUMMARY Trying to set a .png as a user's profile picture fails with message "There was an error while saving changes" STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. try to set a png as a user's pfp 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT PNGs cause the KCM to fail changing the pfp, JPGs work perfectly fine tho EXPECTED RESULT PNGs should work just as well as JPGs SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.75.0 Qt Version: 5.15.1 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
update on this: turns out the issue wasn't related to PNGs, but rather all my PNGs being >1MB and all my JPGs <1MB, which made it seem like PNGs were the problem. Still, not being able to use files over 1MB seems like a massive flaw that should really be fixed.
