Bug ID: 500410
Summary: "Right-click > Paste Clipboard Contents > Cancel (upon
filename prompt)" should not result in "Fatal Error"
notification
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.3.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: nilskemail+...@gmail.com
CC: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Aborting the past of clipboard contents by means of canceling the filename
prompt results in a "Fatal Error" notification even though this is part of
normal usage
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Right-click on the desktop
2. Select "Paste Clipboard Contents..."
3. Click "Cancel" in the filename prompt
OBSERVED RESULT
A "Fatal Error" notification appears
EXPECTED RESULT
No error notification should be issues as aborting such an action is part of
normal usage. More importantly, this notification is not even actionable (what
exactly went wrong, how could one remedy this...) and instead is just confusing
and unsettling for users
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Fedora Linux 41
KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.0

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This could be especially confusing for new users who accidentally press Ctrl+V
while on the desktop and just close the prompt as they do not know what they
did. Receiving a "Fatal Error" notification in this case is unhelpful and will
be even more unsettling for the user
