--- Comment #1 from Gary <[email protected]> --- The ADDITIONAL INFORMATION paragraph above is a stray note from my drafting file, about whether to file this at all -- please disregard it, it is not part of the report. Two things the description was missing. Step 3 in full: kquitapp6 plasmashell rm -f ~/.cache/plasma_theme_*.kcache ~/.cache/ksvg-elements plasmashell & The cache deletion has to happen while the shell is stopped, or it repopulates from memory. Patching widgets/background.svgz in the same theme copy does take effect, so the theme shadowing and the cache clearing are both working -- the translucent/ variant simply is not read. And why it seemed worth reporting rather than leaving alone: it is the obvious first file to patch when trying to make applet backgrounds translucent, so the time it costs is spent before you have any reason to doubt it.
