Bug ID: 450662
Summary: Unable to install or change cursors via any method
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.24.1
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_cursortheme
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: cekunzm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Attempt to install a cursor by navigating to System Settings > Appearance >
Cursors, clicking Get New Cursors..., and clicking Install next to any of the
results.
2. Attempt to install a cursor by navigating to System Settings > Appearance >
Cursors, clicking Get New Cursors... and clicking the search result, then
clicking the Install button in the upper right-hand portion of the window
3. Manually place a cursor theme into ~/.local/share/icons/ and look for it in
the aforementioned section of System Settings.
OBSERVED RESULT
1. The cursor theme will appear to install successfully, but when closing the
search results screen the new cursor theme will have the default Breeze cursors
and not the new ones. Clicking the theme and then clicking Apply has no effect.
2. A dialog box saying "Could not determine the type of archive of the
downloaded file /tmp/NameOfTheme.tar. When closing it, another appears saying
"File not found".
3. The theme does not appear in the list of cursor themes at all.
EXPECTED RESULT
The cursor themes should install as usual; this feature worked in a prior
installation of KDE Plasma I had been using.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Neon User 5.24
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.1
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.91.0
Qt Version: 5.13.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Anecdotally, I have seen that other KDE Plasma users on Reddit are posting
about issues applying and searching for themes (color schemes, icons).
