SUMMARY Any comics that are configured do not show. I believe this started on KDE Plasma Version 5.24.3. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Add comic widget to desktop 2. Configure comics (in my case Dilbert and XKCD) OBSERVED RESULT Comic widget remains blank although tabs do appear for each comic. EXPECTED RESULT Latest comic should be displayed. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 5.24 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.13.0-40-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz Memory: 15.6 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti/PCIe/SSE2
Can confirm the exact same behavior and also that this started around 5.24.3. Operating System: KDE neon 5.24 KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Kernel Version: 5.13.0-40-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 2600 Six-Core Processor Memory: 15.6 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650/PCIe/SSE2 and a system with the same software settings but 8x Core i7 8770 and Mesa/Intel graphics
looks like this duplicates: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=452596 one workaround seems to be to downgrade the KDE framework to 5.92
Yep, it's a recent regression. It's fixed in 5.24.5, which was just released today. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 452596 ***
