Description of problem: wrong splash directory after upgrade of f24-kde-theme-core package Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): f24-kde-theme-core-5.8.4-1.f24.noarch How reproducible: Wrong Fedora 24 KDE splash screen AFTER DNF UPGRADE (december 7) Steps to Reproduce: 1. n.a. 2. n.a. 3. n.a. Actual results: Wrong Fedora 24 KDE splash screen after upgrade Expected results: KDE splash screen belonging to org.fedoraproject.fedora.twenty.four Additional info: Using VANILLA F24 KDE spin (i.e. no changes!) After upgrade (december 7), pkg f24-kde-theme-core-5.7.5-2.fc24.x86_64 had been replaced by pkg f24-kde-theme-core-5.8.4-1.fc24.noarch. The latter pkg has a wrong splash directory at /usr/share/plasma/look-and-feel/org.fedoraproject.fedora.twenty.four/contents. As promised by the previews directory, the KDE splash screen of Fedora 24 has a PROGRESS BAR. The progress bar had been replaced by a BUSY INDICATOR after the upgrade (plus a black colored background). To repair this _mistake_, I replaced the splash directory by the one I got from an earlier version of the package, viz. f24-kde-theme-core-5.6.4-1.fc24.x86_64.rpm Although not a show-stopper, I filed this mistake as a bug, because I have not seen a correction of this mistake in the last few days. --
It's not a mistake, kde/plasma upstream changed the breeze splash theme (and the updates you see here reflect that)
(In reply to Rex Dieter from comment #1) > It's not a mistake, kde/plasma upstream changed the breeze splash theme (and > the updates you see here reflect that) Not a mistake? I disagree. Okay, Rex, you are better informed than I am in this matter. However the preview for Fedora Twenty Four STILL shows the progress bar, not the busy indicator (system settings > workspace theme, tab splash screen). --
OK, what's wrong now is the preview (which wasn't updated to match)
Created attachment 1231495 [details] splash preview of org.fedoraproject.fedora.twenty.four Path to the splash preview file: /usr/share/plasma/look-and-feel/org.fedoraproject.fedora.twenty.four/contents/previews/splash.png
(In reply to Rex Dieter from comment #3) > OK, what's wrong now is the preview (which wasn't updated to match) To answer your question, I have attempted to attach the splash preview that is shown on my system ... The splash *preview* on my system still shows the splash screen that has a progress bar ... (however when testing it, the splash screen of "breeze" is displayed). As far as I can tell, the Fedora KDE SIG deliberately? choose a splash screen that is different from the one that "breeze" has ... That is why I assert that the splash preview of *.four is correct and the splash screen (i.e. directory) of *.four is WRONG. I know that you say different and we can leave the matter as is (especially when I am the only one that is complaining about this). What matters is that the issue has been documented now for future reference. --

Fedora Twenty Four is exactly Breeze, except for a different background/wallpaper. The preview *picture* has not be updated to match 5.8 style (and may never be). If you're saying the animated (preview) version looks different, that is odd certainly, but I cannot reproduce that.

Apparently I am NOT using the correct terminology. laf=/usr/share/plasma/look-and-fool The files below $laf/org.fedoraproject.fedora.twenty.four are from - rpmpkg f24-kde-theme-core and - rpmpkg f24-kde-theme The files below $laf/org.kde.breeze.desktop are from - rpmpkg plasma-workspace Not the same files. That is all I am saying ... With regard to the preview *picture* and the ANIMATED splash screen, there is NO disagreement between us: - the preview *picture* of *.hour shows the progress bar (and will NOT be updated according to you) - the ANIMATED splash screen of *.four shows the busy indicator in front of a black colored background (apparently "cloned" from breeze) Bottom-line: I filed a bug, because the preview *picture* of *.four did NOT match the ANIMATED splash screen of *four. However you were already aware of this discrepancy. Case closed. --
