Summary: Additional mouse button bindings no longer work since
commit bf1ce854748bfd2433c336a9ee972883cb8617ab
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: master
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED

SUMMARY
With Plasma 6.1 from git master, I noticed that the bindings I have set up for
the additional buttons on my mouse no longer work, they just end up doing the
default action bound to them. In my case the buttons are recognized by libinput
as `BTN_EXTRA (276)` and `BTN_SIDE (275)`.
If I revert the part of commit bf1ce854748bfd2433c336a9ee972883cb8617ab (Make
it possible to build KWin without libxcb) that applies to the buttonrebinds
plugin then the bindings work again, and reverting KWin to the commit before
that also works.
In the system logs, these messages appeared when I pressed the mouse buttons
(two of these messages appear for every button press):
> kwin_wayland[42047]: kwin_buttonrebinds: Could not convert
> QKeySequence("Meta+G") syms: QList(285212743) to keycode
> kwin_wayland[42047]: kwin_buttonrebinds: Could not convert
> QKeySequence("Meta+G") syms: QList(285212743) to keycode
> kwin_wayland[42047]: kwin_buttonrebinds: Could not convert
> QKeySequence("Alt+F1") syms: QList(150994992) to keycode
> kwin_wayland[42047]: kwin_buttonrebinds: Could not convert
> QKeySequence("Alt+F1") syms: QList(150994992) to keycode
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a mouse with extra buttons that can be configured via the "Re-bind
Additional Mouse Buttons..." page in the Mouse KCM (mine is just a random
"gaming" mouse I picked up in a nearby store, with two side buttons)
2. Set up a binding for one of those mouse buttons (I used Meta+G and Alt+F1
for the desktop grid and app launcher)
3. Press the mouse button with the binding
OBSERVED RESULT
The button acts as if no binding was set and just performs the default action
(for me the buttons act like forward and back buttons of some sort out of the
box).
EXPECTED RESULT
The keyboard shortcut bound to the button should be triggered.
