Bug ID: 462331
Summary: Kscreenlocker only uses Global Themes when run in
testing mode
Classification: Plasma
Product: kscreenlocker
Version: 5.26.1
Platform: Neon
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: doncb...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
>From what I understand, something fairly major happened around Plasma 5.24-5.25
which changed the way the lockscreen (not SDDM) worked, though I'm not clear on
what happened or how to fix it. It may have had to do with multi-monitor
support.
When using older Global themes that include a lockscreen theme, the lockscreen
seems to use the default Breeze theme, rather the included one. I assumed that
the theme I was using was broken, but when run with the `--testing` flag and
manually specifying the theme, it opens.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install the Willow Desktop [beta] Global Theme through System Settings
2. Apply the theme's Appearance settings
3. Lock the screen
4. Observe the default lockscreen
5. Run kscreenlocker and specify willow's theme (e.g.
`/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kscreenlocker_greet --testing --theme
org.kde.willow-light.desktop`)
6. Observe Willow appear correctly in a preview window
OBSERVED RESULT
The default Breeze lockscreen is seen with the Sleep option under the password
input field. Willow puts power settings in the bottom right corner of the
screen. When run with --testing, Willow appears correctly, but the actual
lockscreen does not show the theme.
EXPECTED RESULT
The Willow lockscreen appears. Or, at least provide some clue of
incompatibility when run with kscreenlocker.
