So there are two different mechanism for theme selection. The
alternatives system: update-alternatives --config sddm-debian-theme
and
Systemsettings. This is confusing.
None of them work.
Ah, it might be Qt 6 based versus Qt 5 based theme.
sddm from experimental is Qt 6 based.
I upgraded another device to Plasam 6.2.0. And interestingly it works
nicely enough with sddm from unstable. And there maldives theme works just
fine.
Best,
Yeah good point, upgraded sddm to exp also and it has themes again, thanks.
It is the other way around: sddm/experimental is QT-5 NOT QT-6 based.
Simulating an installation of sddm/experimental REMOVES here
KDE/Plasma v6.2.0 and 100s of other packages.

Experimental sddm is qt6, try installing with aptitude rather than apt.
$ apt-cache policy sddm
