Re: Upgrade partially some packages (Plasma 5.19. 5 - 3) on testing broke plasma.
I had the same problem this morning with testing.
My fix was to simply to back out the new libkdecorations2-5v5 :
debsnap -d . --binary -a amd64 libkdecorations2-5v5 4:5.17.5-2
sudo dpkg -i libkdecorations2-5v5_5.17.5-2_amd64.deb
dpkg --get-selections \* | grep -P '^libkdecorations2-5v5' \
| sed -e 's/install/hold/' > libkdecorations2-5v5.hold
sudo dpkg --set-selections < libkdecorations2-5v5.hold
That was good enough to get things working for today!
Andy.
