Bug ID: 495021
Summary: Plasmashell fails when plasmoid files are symlinked
and fails
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.2.1
Platform: NixOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Brightness and Color

The specific errors output by running "plasmawindowed
org.kde.plasma.brightness"
SUMMARY
On NixOS, if you choose to use an overlay to rebuild something like say,
powerdevil, to re-enable ddcutil support, the plasmoids it provides break
because the overlay symlinks the individual files, which plasmashell errors out
on, same goes with the plasmawindowed debugger.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Build any plasma component that provides plasmoids with a NixOS overlay.
2. Restart any relevant services, such as plasmashell.
3. Attempt to open a plasmoid provided by the component.
OBSERVED RESULT
The plasmoid is replaced with an error message that it "does not exist".
EXPECTED RESULT
The plasmoid loads as expected.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The override in question, which is added to the configuration.nix's import
list:
let
powerdevil-overlay = final: prev: {
kdePackages = prev.kdePackages // {
powerdevil = prev.kdePackages.powerdevil.overrideAttrs
(old: { buildInputs = old.buildInputs ++ [ final.ddcutil ]; });
};
};
in {
hardware.i2c.enable = true;
nixpkgs.overlays = [ powerdevil-overlay ];
}
