Bug ID: 366471
Summary: Plasma desktop becomes unresponsive with a .desktop
file using a .svgz icon
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.7.2
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: grave
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: marek.schim...@gmail.com
CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
When I upgraded from 5.6.4 to 5.7.2, the desktop became unresponsive (no menu
on right-click, panel didn't react to left- or right-click, desktop shortcuts
didn't work). I couldn't even log out, and had to kill the session
(ctrl+alt+backspace). I created a new user and tracked the issue down to a
.desktop file referring to a .svgz icon. When I removed the offending file, the
problem went away.
I had this .desktop file for some time and it worked without issues with 5.6.4
(and probably for some time before).
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Create a test user 'tester' and login into plasma shell. All works as
expected. (on Fedora, default desktop type is "Folder View")
2. Copy the .svgz file to /tmp
3. Copy the .desktop file to /home/tester/Desktop/
Actual Results:
The desktop becomes unresponsive.
Expected Results:
It should not happen; if svgz is no longer supported the icon should just
become a "generic icon" instead of freezing the desktop.
