SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Debian stable 12 (bookworm), KDE Plasma 5.27.5
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.5
KDE Frameworks Version: "dpkg -l '*framework*'" reports "frameworkintegration 5.103.0-1, plasma-framework     5.103.0-1+deb12u1"
Qt Version: 5.15.8

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The bug is not reproducible in KDE 6. Still I need it to be fixed in KDE 5, because I use KDE 5 in my debian stable

I have lot of free time until 22 Jan 2025. So, if you want me to do some experiments, please, ask now.

I also reported the bug to Debian bug tracker: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1063145 (I got no answer for 11 months, so I decided to report to KDE bug tracker, too)
Comment 1 Bug Janitor Service 2025-01-15 20:33:37 UTC
Thank you for the bug report!

Debian advises users to not submit bugs upstream (https://www.debian.org/Bugs/Reporting), and Plasma 5.27.5 is no longer eligible for support or maintenance from KDE. It's possible that the issue exists only in Debian at this point.

Could you report the bug to Debian using the report bug utility (https://packages.debian.org/stable/utils/reportbug)? If necessary, the maintainer of the package will forward the bug upstream.
Thanks for understanding!

Thanks again!

Is Plasma 5.27.12 eligible for maintenance from KDE?
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2025-01-15 22:29:51 UTC
At this point no; 5.27.12 was the final planned bugfix version.

It's quite likely this is already fixed in a recent Plasma 6 version.
