--- Comment #5 from Nate Graham <n...@kde.org> ---
I think I may understand what happened.

We had an update script that changed people's settings to use a new feature
which was stripped out right before the beta, so the update script updated
people's settings incorrectly and caused this problem.

Then later we fixed the update script to update people's settings correctly to
account for the feature being removed and ensure no regressions. However the
automatic system for running update scripts only runs them once. Since we
changed the same update script between the beta and the final release, people
who were running the beta don't get the update script run again with its
correct data when they upgrade from the beta to the final release!

So the good news is that this won't affect anyone upgrading from Plasma 5.20 to
5.21 (i.e. most people).

The bad news is that it will probably affect everyone who tested the beta.
Sorry. :(

Jan, any ideas for how we can migrate beta users to the final configuration
without asking all of them to manually fix this?
