Bug ID: 451611
Summary: Cannot download more themes/colours/decoration when
systemsettings is in a language other than English.
15-Minutes Bug!
Product: systemsettings
Version: 5.24.3
Platform: Neon Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: lemondej...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
Created attachment 147546

Error when in French (left) and no error when in English (right)
SUMMARY
Whenever trying to download themes or colour schemes or window decorations from
systemsettings with systemsettings running in another language than English,
the window returns an error "Unknown Open Collaboration Service API error. (0)"
(here I translated the error message). However, when running systemsettings in
English, there is no bug.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Use KDE in e.g. French (for instance in a fresh installed VM)
2. Open systemsettings (Discover)
3. Try to download a theme or window decoration within the Appearance menu.
This does not work.
4. Then open a terminal and run `LANG=C systemsettings` where LANG=C stands for
default US English.
5. Try again, and now it works (but it is in English, which may not be the
user's language).
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux kernel: 5.13.0-35-generic
Distro: Kubuntu with enabled KDE backports
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.3
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I tagged the 15-Minutes Bug Initiative in the title because changing themes is
what many people do in the first 15 minutes AND the bug is reproducible on a
freshly installed KDE Neon VM set-up to French during the install, which I
tried out. There is also someone pointing to this on an Arch forum:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=257236
IMPORTANT
Note that I am not sure it has to do with systemsettings directly, because
whenever a theme or colour scheme or kwin script is installed and gets an
update in plasma-discover, plasma-discover would fail at doing the update
unless I run it in English (`LANG=C plasma-discover`).
