SUMMARY


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open System Settings > font management
2. press "get new fonts"
3. attempt to install 6760 fonts by SeanParsons, or any other font by SeanParsons. Effect also observed with some other fonts, eg digital face font by zafar88

OBSERVED RESULT
A message very briefly shows saying "The item is currently in an invalid or unknown state". A grey translucent box appears over the top left section of the "get new fonts" dialogue, with a little grey box attached to it's bottom right corner. I guess this is supposed to contain a message or something but it just blocks the window and can be hard to get rid of.


EXPECTED RESULT
Font is downloaded and installed

Tested on Plasma 6.4.3

Bug confirmed.
Seems as if the fonts were stored on and loaded from an external page, which does not host these files anymore.
