SUMMARY after updating to plasma 5.21 beta the old systemload monitor widget got removed from both panels (one vertical and one horizontal) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. add systemload widget to panel 2. update to plasma 5.21 beta OBSERVED RESULT systemload widget is missing EXPECTED RESULT old systemload widget is replaced with the new one or old systemload widget is still on my panels Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.78.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.10.10-zen1-1-zen OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 8 × AMD Ryzen 5 2500U with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx Memory: 15,2 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: AMD Radeon™ Vega 8 Graphics ADDITIONAL INFORMATION the old systemload widget also isn't (yet) on the kde-store
I appears that the migration script needs fixing: https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-desktop/-/blob/Plasma/5.21/desktoppackage/contents/updates/systemloadviewer_systemmonitor.js
so it did not got swapped with the 3 new ones, right? indeed checks for it only in the desktop and not panels, will fix that
Would you please keep the "old" one; it works fine for me. Is there a reason for removing/replacing it? See https://www.reddit.com/r/kde/comments/l4wv2f/cpuramswap_monitor_widget_removed_from_plasma_521/
yes, no systemload widget was replaced, I didn't have a widget on the desktop though. Also the systemload widget is now in the kde store (https://store.kde.org/p/1474921/), downloading it and restarting plasmashell restored my previous configuration

I just upgraded from Kubuntu 20.04 to 22.04 which has KDE 5.24.7 and my widget is also gone without any replacement. I re downloaded it from the store (https://store.kde.org/p/1474921/), but the widget isn't showing any bars.
I'm afraid the releases affected by this are long since out of support, so if the migration process failed, there's sadly nothing KDE can do about it anymore. :/
