Bug ID: 524386
Summary: kglobalshortcutsrc gets 2-line churn at every
login/logout for Spectacle actions lacking
X-KDE-Shortcuts
Classification: Applications
Product: Spectacle
Version First 6.7.4
Reported In:
Platform: Arch Linux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: General
Assignee: [email protected]

Target Milestone: ---
DESCRIPTION
The [services][org.kde.spectacle.desktop] section of
~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc is rewritten twice per session, and the two writes
disagree: two entries are present after login but dropped by the next rewrite,
so they disappear and reappear at every login/logout.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Log into Plasma, check the [services][org.kde.spectacle.desktop] section of
~/.config/kglobalshortcutsrc.
2. Reboot.
3. Check again.
OBSERVED RESULT
After login the section contains 10 entries:
[services][org.kde.spectacle.desktop]
ActiveWindowScreenShot=none
CurrentMonitorScreenShot=none
FullScreenScreenShot=none
OpenWithoutScreenshot=none
RecordRegion=none
RecordScreen=none
RecordWindow=none
RectangularRegionScreenShot=none
WindowUnderCursorScreenShot=none
_launch=Print
After reboot the same section contains only 8 entries - exactly these two are
gone:
CurrentMonitorScreenShot=none
OpenWithoutScreenshot=none
and they come back at the next login, forever.
EXPECTED RESULT
The file should converge to a stable state.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
KDE Plasma Version: 6.7.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 6.28.0
Qt Version: 6.11.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
/usr/share/applications/org.kde.spectacle.desktop declares 9 desktop actions;
exactly these two have no X-KDE-Shortcuts= line, the other 7 all do (and their
entries are stable):
[Desktop Action CurrentMonitorScreenShot]
Exec=/usr/bin/spectacle -m
[Desktop Action OpenWithoutScreenshot]
Exec=/usr/bin/spectacle -l
So the two kglobalshortcutsrc write paths appear to disagree on whether actions
without an X-KDE-Shortcuts declaration belong in the [services] section:
- At session start, all 9 actions are registered. DBus confirms:
gdbus call --session --dest org.kde.kglobalaccel --object-path /kglobalaccel
\
--method org.kde.KGlobalAccel.allActionsForComponent
"['org.kde.spectacle.desktop','']"
returns 10 actions including CurrentMonitorScreenShot and
OpenWithoutScreenshot, and the two entries get written to the file.
- At logout/cleanup, only actions with an X-KDE-Shortcuts declaration survive
the rewrite, so the two entries are removed from the file.
The bug is cosmetic (both entries are "none"), but it causes permanent config
churn for anyone tracking ~/.config in a git repo.
