This patch?

I think reverting it for now and me or David can make a 5.38.1 release
would be easiest

Yes, that should be the change causing the issue. It could also be the change in KWindowSystem.

Best would be someone on an X11 system to test what helps (maybe Kai-Uwe?).

Hi all,

unfortunately I have to inform you that KGlobalAccel has a severe
regression [1] in the latest framework release resulting in many
shortcuts no longer functioning.

As the current frameworks release is the one the next Plasma release
is going to depend on, we need to act quickly. In the current state
I would say a release of Plasma requiring this frameworks version is
an absolute no-no, this is release blocking. I'm saying this as the
maintainer of kglobalaccel and of the most affected application
KWin.

Following recommendations from my side:
* distributions who have not yet shipped out the latest frameworks
release should hold back kglobalaccel and maybe kwindowsystem
* in KGlobalAccel we need to get a fix for it, I'm not able to
provide it, though.
* Otherwise I would suggest that the change in KGlobalAccel gets
reverted

Due to the fact that Plasma depends on this release we must act
quickly and do a bug fix release for frameworks even if this is
uncommon and against the practice.

Sorry for any inconveniences.

KGlobalAccel maintainer
