Bug ID: 467739
Summary: After network error, the app is basically useless
Classification: Applications
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.26.5
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: craig.e.s...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug
symbols.
See
https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Plasma Settings
2. Go to the Appearance module
3. Attempt to install or update a number of Application Styles, Plasma Styles,
Color themes, and/or Splash Screens.
OBSERVED RESULT
At some point, a network read error occurs and the Settings app NEVER recovers.
Trying to download anything further will result in an error. Simply exitng the
browsel dialog for those categories is not enough. You must exit the entire
Settings app in order for it to start working again.
This has been happening for mostly the entire year I've been using Manjaro
Linux. I've went through several Plasma updates and this has not been adressed.
I can assure you I have no networking issues, as I maintained connectivity on
other devices.
EXPECTED RESULT
In general, these applications ought to be resiliant to potential network
disruptions (the network is unreliable!). Network errors should not result in
needing to restart the application to be able to use it in the expected manner.
