Thank you for coordinating Debian releases, it must be a hell of a job. 🙂

This is tracked upstream as bug 464186 (now linked).

The fix is in KDE Frameworks 5.104 which is expected to be released tomorrow 
(March 11.).

I've not seen the release note yet but KDE Frameworks is a tightly coupled set 
of 83 source packages, and I'd prefer avoiding having to backport individual 
fixes as much as possible.

If I could trick the Release Team into accepting 5.104 into bookworm as a 
whole, it would fix this issue and probably several others in a safe way. 
Frameworks 5.x is now in maintenance mode and upstream is supposed to include 
only bugfixes there.

This particular fix is a oneliner so not an issue to backport in itself, but it 
would mean I'm going down the long hard path of patching on top of the 83 
frameworks packages version 5.103, hoping not to (cross-)break more things. So 
patching is definitely not my preferred option.

Let's see what the complete Frameworks 5.104 release note brings us and I'll 
file a proper unblock pre-approval bug to discuss this.


Happy hacking,
