Package: kwin
Version: 4:5.27.2-1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch,upstream,fixed-upstream
Hi and thank you for maintaining kwin in Debian!
With 5.27.2 release, plasma-mobile does not start on Pine64 Pinephone
and similar low-spec devices any more. It worked ok with kwin 5.26.90.
I've already reported this issue upstream [1] and it seems this got
fixed in 5.27.3 with commit [2]: please consider cherry-picking that
commit into Debian, in order to have plasma-mobile working again in
bookworm.
Severity of this bug is grave as "makes the package in question unusable
or mostly so": please find in the upstream bug report a photo [3] of my
PP when starting plasma-mobile on top of kwin actually in bookworm.
Nothing can be used, only a white rectangle on black background is
shown: that is, this bug makes plasma-mobile completely unusable on some
devices in the upcoming stable release.
Kind regards
Marco
