Upgrade from a working system to KDE 6.1 OBSERVED RESULT KDE Connect fails to start, with error: "error activating kdeconnectd: QDBusError("org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Spawn.ExecFailed", "Failed to execute program org.kde.kdeconnect: No such file or directory")" EXPECTED RESULT KDE Connect continues to start at boot without any interaction. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: Linux/KDE Plasma: (available in About System) KDE Plasma Version: 6.10 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.3 Qt Version: 6.7.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION I'm on Tumbleweed, but found the 'fix' for this via a gentoo bug report: https://bugs.gentoo.org/934785 and have seen various reports of it on other distros.
