Public bug reported: ubiquity-dm in Kubuntu Focal does not display the KDE wallpaper on the try/install. Instead a black background is shown.
The reason is that ubiquity-dm specifies the wallpaper for kde/Kubuntu as: /usr/share/wallpapers/Next/contents/images/2560x1600.png https://git.launchpad.net/ubiquity/tree/bin/ubiquity-dm#n707 This has been valid for many many plasma releases, however in Plasma 5.18 the winner of the upstream wallpaper competition was included and shipped there as .jpg. Obviously ubiquity-dm fails to find the png it expects. Symlinking or copying the jpg as a png does not work around the issue. So we likely need to either; (a) change the hardcoded path, or (b) make the wallpaper ubiquity dm looks for set by something like an environment variable or config file supplied/set by the flavour (default setting package?) ** Affects: ubiquity (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1863073 Title: ubiquity-dm in Kubuntu Focal does not display the KDE wallpaper To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ubiquity/+bug/1863073/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
