Hi Sandro,

It looks like you've mixed up the bug report with some attempt at
troubleshooting, but without enough detail on either of those to lead us to a
fix.

As I understand it, the actual issue is that kwin has "some functionality not
working", task switcher in particular.

You think this may be related to Desktop File Parser, I'm guessing based on a
review of logs and console output.  But we don't have enough detail here to
show whether the warning message you saw is really a kwin bug, or perhaps kwin
searching for an old-style kwin-effects as a fallback after properly searching
for kwineffects.desktop.

In other words, KWin might be doing the right thing and DesktopFileParser might
be doing the right thing, with a packaging error of some sort thrown in.  But
it's hard to tell, a lot of the "normal looking" logs we don't have here would
help us to eliminate potential problems.

I'm CC'ing the maintainers for both of these in case either have seen this, but
I would recommend at the very least to attach the full kwin output logs you
have from where you're experiencing issues, and to provide additional detail
about what exactly the problems are (including related issues), what parts of
KWin are still working, graphics drivers in use, the last working version of
kwin and when things stopped working right, etc.  Thanks.
