Comment 5 Nate Graham 2025-12-22 17:45:43 UTC
Is there a user-facing portal problem associated with this? Or are you only reporting the error in the log?
Comment 6 Don Teiser 2025-12-22 18:02:47 UTC
Please forgive my ignorance, but I don't understand what you mean by a "portal problem".
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2025-12-22 21:56:55 UTC
xdg-desktop-portal is a tool to offer services to portal-using apps, such as those from Flatpak.

I'm asking if you see an actual problem with any of these apps, or if this bug report is simply reporting the existence of a line in the log that you found suspicious.
Comment 8 Don Teiser 2025-12-23 00:15:27 UTC
The apps are not a problem.  The fact that KDE dies periodically is a problem.
