Control: reassign -1 kde-plasma-desktop My guess is that this has something to do with kde-plasma-desktop, but you're going to need to provide more information about which window manager you're using, what version it is, and what you've most recently installed.

Bug#1030632: bugs.debian.org: cannot select picture from a local directory to use as desktop background in kde plasma
Package: bugs.debian.org Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I am using Debian testing (bookworm). I have a 4 monitor setup and my graphics card is this: 0a:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Navi 23 [Radeon RX 6600/6600 XT/6600M] (rev c7) I have been running Debian testing for about 6 months and this is the first time that an update has caused something significant to stop working. When I ran an update last week and rebooted, all of a sudden the pictures that I use for my desktop slideshow would not come up as a desktop background. Instead all I get is black screen. The default menu bar panel works and my system is functional, but there is no desktop background. If I select slideshow or image and try to set an image from a local directory, it will not set a desktop background. I only get a blank screen. If I select a picture of the day so that it grabs an image from the internet, like Astronomy Picture of the Day, it sets the image. But it will not set the image from a local directory. In addition, the digital clock widget on the menu bar no longer works. If I click on the spot where the digital clock used to appear, I get this error: "file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.digitalclock/contents/ui/main.qml:80:34: Type CalendarView unavailable file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.digitalclock/contents/ui/CalendarView.qml:604:13: Cannot assign to non-existent property "eventButton"" I don't know if these 2 items are related, but the failures happened at the same time. I posted the problem in the Debian user forms at this url: https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?t=153902 I was told this had to do with libkscreen.
