Package: kwin-wayland Version: 4:5.8.4-1 Severity: grave Justification: renders package unusable

Since kwin-x11 was being even crashier than usual, I tried the other Plasma (wayland) entry for a change.

To my great joy, it worked flawlessly ... for the first several minutes.

After that, however, everything became nonresponsive, and I observed kwin-wayland using over 2GB each of both RAM and SWAP as I killed it.

I'm not desperate enough to use GNOME, so I'm stuck on the CLI for now.

kwin-wayland and the Plasma (wayland) desktop sessions are work in progress versions. Packaged to be tested, but not (currently) real alternatives. I'll add this information to the package descriptions of kwin-wayland and plasma-workspace-wayland.

Versions of packages kwin-wayland depends on:
ii kwayland-integration 5.8.4-1 ii kwin-common 4:5.8.4-1 ii kwin-wayland-backend-drm [kwin-wayland-backend] 4:5.8.2-1+b1

Your kwin was not completely upgraded. I guess this shows a missing stronger runtime dependency.

Happy hacking,
