Here is a dirty hack that I have tried to downgrade kscreen and solve the
problem:
1. Download libkscreen from
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/libkscreen/-/tree/Plasma/5.25 and kscreen from
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kscreen/-/tree/Plasma/5.25;
2. Install all the build dependencies. I am on Ubuntu (with the kubuntu
backport PPA to try plasma 5.26) so I run "apt-get build-dep libkf5screen7
kscreen";
3. Remove kscreen by "apt remove kscreen". libkscreen from apt is not removable
since plasma depends on it;
4. Build the libkscreen 5.25 and install it (override the one from apt);
5. Build the kscreen 5.25 and install it.

Now it should be enough to solve the problem.
