Description Thomas Andrews 2017-05-18 04:21:08 CEST

Description of problem: 

After getting a round of 28 update packages about an hour ago from the kernel.org mirror, and rebooting, the Plasma Task Manager no longer works. It has morphed into an icon, and the systray and clock have shifted to the left, leaving empty space in the panel on the right.

If you click on the icon, you get a box with this message:

Error loading QML file: file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/
org.kde.plasma.taskmanager/contents/ul/
main.qml:168.9: Cannot assign to non-existent
property "enabled"

So far, I am seeing this on two sets of hardware.

Probably a regression from http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages?view=revision&revision=1102907 and http://svnweb.mageia.org/packages?view=revision&revision=1102908

Definitely, as before these packages updates Task Manager worked OK. Icons only Task Manager shows the same message.

@ Nicolas: Maybe best to revert on the previous state for now, as it's what we have on RC ISOs and is well tested. Once Mageia 6 is released, we could work on a bugfix update via the standard channels, with all the time we need to test it thoroughly.

Comment 4 Rémi Verschelde 2017-05-18 16:42:53 CEST

Should be fixed with plasma-workspace-5.8.6-11.mga6, can you confirm?

Comment 5 Thomas Andrews 2017-05-18 18:31:41 CEST

Sorry, no difference. Because I didn't see the problem until after a reboot, I tried rebooting this time, too. Still no change.

Comment 6 Jüri Ivask 2017-05-18 18:41:19 CEST

I guess the package plasma-dessktop should be reverted? At least I got my taskbar back copying /usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/taskbar directory from older plasma-desktop rpm instead of current one...

Comment 7 Rémi Verschelde 2017-05-18 19:32:58 CEST

Indeed. Please try plasma-desktop-5.8.6-10.mga6 once it reaches your mirror :)

Comment 8 Mike Rambo 2017-05-18 21:36:06 CEST

Updating to plasma-desktop-5.8.6-10 on top of plasma-workspace-5.8.6-11 fixed it for me.

Closing.

Sorry I didn't get back sooner. Bad thunderstorm yesterday afternoon took out my Internet service until 10:00 this morning.

Confirming the plasma-desktop-5.8.6-10.mg6 update fixes the problem for me, too.
