Description Myriam Schweingruber 2025-12-31 18:31:34 UTC 
This is a new laptop running Tuxedo OS: 

KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0
Qt Version: 6.9.2
Kernel Version: 6.14.0-116036-tuxedo (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: Wayland

The Digital Clock widget does not update at all when set in the panel, the update only happens when I switch clock widget and come back. This makes the widget pretty useless.
The clock updates correctly in the analog clock widget.

Thanks for the bug report. I'm not able to reproduce this in Plasma built from git-master or Plasma 6.5.4 on Solus.

Can you try running updates and seeing if that fixes the problem? The current versions of things are:

KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.22.0
Qt Version: 6.10.1

If you still see the bug after updating, please attach system logs for a couple of minutes using journalctl. Thanks!
