Bug#1114668: KDE not usable any more after upgrade vom Debian 12 to 13 (trixie)
Package: kde-plasma-desktop
Version: 5:162
Severity: important
Dear Maintainer,
i am very sorry to say that, but after the upgrade from Debian 12 to 13
i am very disappointed, because nearly nothing is working and it feels
like a time warp to an alpha state.
It is not possible to make a complete list, because there seems to be
hundreds of things that does not work any more:
* Screenshot is not possible, it errors with a message in kwin
* The Starter Menu is empty
* There are no tasks visible in the main control bar
* Old icons are not starting an application, sometimes they start
withour an error calling them manual in a shell
* ...
The upgrade process from Debian 12 to 13 did work without any error or
problem.
The actual problems occur in the same way with wayland and xorg.
Is a complete new and fresh installation needed?
Please don't remove the repositories from Debian 11 (bullseye), because
this is the last version that works stable for me.
In Debian 12 there where already some of the problem's visible and now
Debian 13 has become unusable.
At this time all 3 versions are installed parallel in different
partitions (additional Debian 8 that is needed for FAX functionality).
What has happened in the last years?
Best regards
karsten
