SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols.
See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install neon-testing-20230627-0252.iso
2. Reboot and sign in
3. Update system, (pkcon refresh, sudo pkcon update)

OBSERVED RESULT
sudo pkcon update crashes during execution after "Getting updates, Finished, Testing changes, Finished" with the following message: Fatal error: The following packages have unmet dependencies:
  qml-module-org-kde-purpose: Depends: libkf5purpose-bin (= 5.107.0+p22.04+tunstable+git20230703.0050-0) but it is not going to be installed


EXPECTED RESULT
Expected update to complete without issue, (was actually testing whether the update issue that's rendered neon unstable unusable yesterday - see other bug I filed this morning - also affects neon testing, but this is a different issue that I've not seen with neon unstable).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Comment 1 publiclyvisibleemail 2023-07-03 16:52:47 UTC
The neon unstable bug that I mentioned below is 471906
Comment 2 Jonathan Riddell 2023-07-04 10:57:16 UTC
This needs libaccounts-qt to build successfully in unstable (which now pushes to both unstable and stable/testing)
Comment 3 Moltke 2023-07-04 20:11:39 UTC
I've been having this like for a week now. Updating via "pkcon" doesn't work, but "apt full-upgrade" does, however, these pkgs are held thus not updated: libkf5purpose-bin libkf5purpose5 qml-module-org-kde-purpose. I tried installing them, but apt complains about "libaccounts-qt not going to be installed" like Jonathan Riddell's comment suggests.

Comment 5 Carlos De Maine 2025-09-20 09:35:58 UTC
Thank you for your bug report! 
However this bug report was created/provided previous to 01/01/2023 and also has not received any updates since  before 01/01/2025. 
Unfortunately KDE neon no longer provides updates for anything older than noble 24.04 based edition's.
Please upgrade to KDE neon noble and if you can reproduce the issue after upgrading to an active version, feel free to re-open this bug report.
Thanks for understanding!
