This is only the case when i choose an old design. If i download a new one, testing the design is possible by click on the arrow. But when i click on "apply" the message "Das Paket wurde gelöscht" apprears.

I've tried this on Neon but cannot duplicate (i.e. I can select 'apply' for all themes available). I'm suspecting from the description that this problem applies to themes already installed on Plasma 5, and then an upgrade to Plasma 6. Would you agree? Thanks, Nick.
Comment 4 Ray7 2024-03-23 13:52:47 UTC
@Nick i can confirm. This is only the case with themes installed on Plasma 5 before i upgraded to Plasma 6.
Comment 5 Nick 2024-03-23 17:46:53 UTC
Thanks. This will need to be duplicated before confirming as a bug. I'll see if I can test perhaps by upgrading a Kubuntu 23.10 system to 24.04 dev with a theme installed and see what happens. Meanwhile if anyone else reading this is able to duplicate it please post here.
