My Trixie upgrade experience - not great, not terrible (KDE segfault)
"Only" two major issues:
First, a realtek dkms driver I installed from source blocked kernel
update (this one is my fault obviously).
Second, a Plasma 6 segfault/crash after upgrade and login. It was a
half-crash because toolbars were gone but I could still launch programs
via search.
This got me very worried because nothing is mentioned in
the upgrade wiki about such an issue. On my spare profile, I managed to
solve it by deleting ~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc
On my main profile, I didn't want to lose my settings so I did some more
debugging:
- crash only happened when I turned on my second monitor or booted with
all 3 turned on
- decided to try clearing cache only with rm -rf ~/.cache/plasmashell
and re-login, it worked.
Well, I think this is what I did.. or maybe it somehow resolved itself
by sheer magic.
According to stacktrace, it seems like something with SVG/wallpaper is
the core issue
