Description Mr Beedell, Roke Julian Lockhart 2025-07-05 16:10:22 UTC
Description of problem:
At KDE's `systemsettings`'s "Quick Settings" page, [^1] I attempted to switch global theme from `org.kde.breezedark.desktop` to `org.kde.breeze.desktop` (like `lookandfeel --apply` would). Although I *believe* that I hit "Apply", after which the theme changed, *then* the window decoration's closure button. When I did, "Apply Settings" modal window appeared regardless. When I selected "Apply", the window closed, and the theme reverted, for the applications, but didn't for the shell. After 0.75s, the shell crashed and automatically reloaded, whereupon Dr Konqi and GNOME Abrt invoked.

Comment 15 itsakza07 2025-10-27 05:37:02 UTC
I did install and remove Hyperland. Specifically using [this script](https://github.com/JaKooLit/Fedora-Hyprland) recently. Used for hours after that ( ofcourse after reboot ). Other than that, nothing that I'm aware of. Also did `flatpak update -y`. Dark mode was broken. I did change theme style to Breeze dark thinking it would fix. But it didn't help. Reboot fixed things. But it shouldnt've happened because it was already a first boot of the day.

Comment 16 Fedora Release Engineering 2026-05-06 13:27:51 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 42 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 42 on 2026-05-13.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '42'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 42 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.
