Plasma 6.3

[matiux]

I received today Plasma 6 on Linux Arch and now I get this error:

file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.windowbuttons/contents/ui/main.qml:23:1: Cannot load library /usr/lib/qt6/qml/org/kde/appletdecoration/libappletdecorationplugin.so: libkdecorations2.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any suggestion?

#22 working fine here on NixOS

[matiux]

@andrevmatos but it doesn't work on Arch :(

[ferorborja]

@matiux Can confirm #22 works with Arch Linux, just updated. You either install @nicolasfella fork or wait for the merge.

[matiux]

@andrevmatos thanks. If it's a matter of a few days, I'll wait for your package update. Otherwise, I will clone and install the @nicolasfella fork. Let me know :)

[matiux]

Ok, I was curious :)
I can confirm that @nicolasfella fork works on Arch

[proatgram]

I can also confirm that @nicolasfella fork works on arch.
And funnily enough the AUR package I was modifying on the fly to install it got removed as I was testing it haha

This applet is inside the arch official repository with name 'plasma-applet-window-buttons'. This official version merged @nicolasfella fork work even before stable plasma 6.3 come out. So stop using aur package, use the official version. The aur package is removed because of duplication.

Ah thanks for letting me know! I'm not sure how I missed the package in the official repo when I was originally installing this.

Hmm, still have one problem here in Plasma 6.3. Migration from KDecoration2 to KDecoration3 causes error when compiling and installing from install.sh script

@yoelwep13578 This patch adapts the code for KDecoration3:

Is moodyhunter the only one who can merge pull requests?
It seems like this project is unmaintained.

[YamiYukiSenpai]

It was merged yesterday
https://github.com/moodyhunter/applet-window-buttons6/commits/master/

The release hasn't been updated, though.

@moodyhunter shouldn't there be a new release specifically for Plasma 6.3?

[moodyhunter]

yea, okay I'll make a new release

[moodyhunter]

done: https://github.com/moodyhunter/applet-window-buttons6/releases/tag/v0.14.0

Just confirm, that this applet need kwin-dev in debian sid.
if this dep not installed, build process will error like this

...
make[2]: *** No rule exists to create target '/usr/share/dbus-1/interfaces/org.kde.KWin.xml', required by 'libappletdecoration/kwin_interface.cpp'. Stop.

Hi, I have the rules for creating a deb package for Debian Testing. Do you need them?

[micmalti]

I just updated to this version but I'm getting this feeling that in the previous version, the buttons used to remain hidden, even on maximized windows, and only show up when the mouse is hovered over that area. Was it actually the case, or is it just a false memory?

Hi,
I tried to compile the source on current KDE Neon, but it ends up with an error with the libkdecorations2-dev package.

sudo apt install g++ extra-cmake-modules qt6-base-dev qt6-declarative-dev libkf6declarative-dev libkf6plasma-dev kf6-ksvg-dev libkdecorations2-dev gettext

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 libkdecorations2-dev : Depends: libkdecorations2-5v5 (= 4:5.27.11-0ubuntu2) but 4:6.3.4-0zneon+24.04+noble+release+build16 is to be installed
