Description Linus Guglielmo 2022-10-10 14:18:42 UTC
ISSUE
***
Plasmashell restarts when using slideshow wallpapers, every time the wallpaper rotates. 
***

EXPECTED RESULT
For the current wallpaper to be rotated without restarting plasmashell.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux Distro: openSUSE Tumbleweed (20221001)
KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0
Qt Version: 5.15.6

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I also have enabled the option to make the accent colour of the Breeze theme match my current wallpaper. I would not be surprised if that is part of what is leading to this issue. Simply because not only the wallpaper has to be switched out, but the current accent colour too.

I forgot to mention something very important. I am also using Wayland, not X11.

If something crashed, we need a backtrace of it so we can figure out what's going on. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports.

Can you please attach one? Thanks!
