Dear Maintainer,
The initial bug reported should be now fixed:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=347352
My bug is actually a combination of two different issues, both
upstream, and both different from the one initially reported here.
One is this: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346918 which is
still under discussion upstream.
The other is not a bug, just an undocumented feature:
https://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?t=137574
Dumping more information in case someone else runs into this bug:
chmod -w ~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc doesn't work, the file still
manages to get overwritten.
Making a small shell script in .config/autostart-scripts that would
sed away the offending input in ~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc also
doesn't work, because the substitution apparently happens after the
script is executed.
In any case, this bug can be closed. Maybe a different one can be
opened for the Alt+F1 shortcut.
Best regards,
Vivia Nikolaidou
