Bug ID: 484682
Summary: Since 6.0.3, global shortcuts do not persist settings
across sessions and behave erratically
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 6.0.3
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: kcm_keys
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: xna...@hydra-development.net
CC: k...@david-redondo.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
>From 6.0.2 -> 6.0.3, global shortcut functionality has more or less broken down
on my systems, at least when it comes to configuring them. I noticed that, at
least for Spectacle, the shortcuts are reset to their factory defaults upon
every single sign in. Additionally, modifying a shortcut may (or may not) lead
to two Spectacles appearing in system settings (see attachment).
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log in to Plasma 6.0.3 session (Wayland)
2. Open System Settings
3. Navigate to Input & Output -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts
4. Select Spectacle
5. Choose a new custom shortcut for "Capture Rectangular Region" (I used
Meta+Shift+S and reassigned the default shortcut, but I've observed the same
behavior with different combinations)
6. Apply
7. Attempt to use the newly (re-)defined shortcut immediately.
OBSERVED RESULT
The (re-)defined shortcut may or may not work. Signing out and signing in again
sees all shortcuts reset to factory default. After relogging and opening System
Settings shortcuts, there may be (or may not be) two entries for Spectacle
present.
EXPECTED RESULT
The (re-)defined shortcut is assigned immediately, and continues to function
between sessions.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: NixOS
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.0.0
Qt Version: 6.6.3
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This could be an upstream bug in NixOS, well at least it feels like the sort of
thing that could be introduced there, but I couldn't see any significant
changes from the nixpkgs side of things. Would be great if someone on a
different distro could confirm this issue.
