Description coherence 2024-03-14 16:05:04 UTC 
SUMMARY
global shortcuts are still there when a kwin script is uninstalled

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  create a kwin script, in which a global shortcut is registered by `registerShortcut` method
2.  install the script using `kpackagetool6 --type KWin/Script --install .`
2.  the global shortcut works correctly
3.  uninstall the script

OBSERVED RESULT
the registered global shortcut still works

EXPECTED RESULT
It should not work.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Arch Linux
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0 
Qt Version: 6.6.2

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
And when I install a script again which binds the same shortcut, the shortcut seems to call to the old (uninstalled) script, not the new one.
