Hi,
thank you for taking a look into plasma-settings and spending the time
to analyse the situation so deeply.
As for all issues related to Qt5/KF5/Plasma5, we are unlikely to get any
support by upstream developers, as their workforce is limited and
focused on Plasma6.
On Debian side, the Debian Qt/KDE team has been working a lot in last
months to package the stack needed to get Plasma6 into the archive. As
far as I see, up-to-date situation has Qt6.6 in sid, hopefully
transitioning soon to trixie, while KF6 is being prepared in
experimental. After KF6 is uploaded to sid, it should be possible to
package new version of plasma-settings.
As you pointed out, the root of this issue could be either in
plasma-settings, either in plasma-mobile. For the latter to be packaged
in its 6.x version, it will also take plasma-workspace and similar
packages to be prepared by the Qt/KDE team. Hopefully a matter of few
months...
To summarize, I suggest to get back to this analysis when we have both
plasma-settings and plasma-mobile in their up-to-date releases in
Debian. It's likely that the issue is not there anymore in new releases,
as Plasma6 was a major rewrite and they addressed a lot of issues in the
meanwhile...
Kind regards
Marco
