Bug ID: 364897
Summary: Can't logout/reboot/shutdown after Qt upgrad
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: sit...@kde.org
CC: bhus...@gmail.com, plasma-b...@kde.org
This has happened numerous times in the past, most recently I noticed it with
5.5->5.6 and now 5.6->5.7. Whenver Qt sees a major upgrade the overlay dialogs
for logout and friends does not actually load.
The blur&shade effects are applied but then the dialog never gets loaded.
I forgot to take a look at the logs but I am guessing this is because the qml
files fail to load due to incompatible qtquick c++ plugins that would be
dragged in.
This essentially makes it impossible for a user to get out of the session.
To prevent this the logout/reboot/shutdown/... components should be lazy loaded
after startup and then held in-memory so we can always display the dialogs to
actually end the currently running session.
Reproducible: Always
