Bug ID: 486268
Summary: System Wallpapers installed via Fedora Repos don't
show up in the Wallpaper Picker
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasmashell
Version: 6.0.4
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: Image Wallpaper
Assignee: plasma-b...@kde.org
Reporter: rein...@comcast.net
CC: notm...@gmail.com, qydwhotm...@gmail.com
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
Fedora Repo wallpapers no longer show up in the wallpaper picker since
upgrading to Plasma 6 (Fedora 40).
If I add a wallpaper from the directory individually by pointing to it's
1920x1080.jpg file, Plasma 6 realizes the "full suite" of a single image is
present and grants it to the wallpaper picker but it refuses to look for all
other images downloaded in the same parent folder.
I believe wallpapers from dnf are downloaded to usr/share/backgrounds but have
aliases created where Plasma is looking: /usr/share/wallpapers. However, Plasma
refuses to check these aliases unless I force it to for each individual image.
Plasma 5 (the previous version part of Fedora 39) automatically showed all
wallpapers downloaded whether alias or not in the wallpaper picker.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download any wallpaper set from Fedora Repos (f21-backgrounds-base, for
example).
2. Go to the Wallpaper picker in Plasma.
3. The new wallpapers don't show up in the grid to be selected.
OBSERVED RESULT
The new wallpapers don't display.
EXPECTED RESULT
The new wallpapers should display.
