SUMMARY When pressing the "Show clipboard items at mouse position" shortcut (Meta+V), the window continously opens and closes itself, disrupting the mouse from being able to interact with any part of the desktop. The loop will not stop until I kill plasmashell manually and restart it. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Boot Into KDE Plasma via login-manager (Wayland or X11) 2. Press Meta+V to show clipboard history OBSERVED RESULT Infinite looping window, effectively crashing plasmashell. EXPECTED RESULT show singular window for clipboard history and select previous clipboard to restore. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS KDE Plasma Version: 6.1.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.5.0 Qt Version: 6.7.2 Kernel Version: 6.10.6-zen1-1-zen (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 6 × Intel® Core™ i5-9400F CPU @ 2.90GHz Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 SUPER/PCIe/SSE2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The widget in the panel works perfectly, the problem only occurs from the popup window.

(In reply to Nate Graham from comment #3) > > *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 489259 *** Please stop marking this as a duplicate. The behavior of the bugs are entirely different, the bug I am reporting does not forcefully crash plasmashell, rather it soft-locks the user forcing them to restart plasmashell. The key only needs to be pressed once and the compositor is irrelevant, the behavior is the same on Xorg (X11) or Wayland.
Oh, sorry.
I'm unable to reproduce this in git master (which will become Plasma 6.2 in a little over a month), quite possibly because what Meta+V does has completely change for Plasma 6.2: now instead of opening a QMenu, it opens a miniaturized version of the Plasma widget, so the two share code and UI styling. Is there any chance you can test out current git master from the kde-unstable repo to see if this fixes the issue for you too? If not, let's wait for Plasma 6.2.

If not, let's > wait for Plasma 6.2. I see the kde-unstable repo but I'm not sure how to install the packages from it and replace the regular plasma packages. I am fully updated to the newest release from the normal arch linux repo, is the version from the arch linux repo have conflicting code with the plasma-workspace package?
That's ok, don't blow up your system over it. I'm fairly sure this can no longer happen as described due to the change in Plasma 6.2 I mentioned. Let's close it for now. However if after updating to Plasma 6.2, you do find that you can still reproduce the issue, feel free to re-open this ticket. Thanks!
Okay, thank you so much! I'll make sure to try it later on
Hello, Just wanted to update that the bug is completely gone now, seems to be exactly how you anticipated and it was just an issue with updates. Thanks for helping me though!
