I first thought it was a Latte-dock issue, but it turned out it was AWC.

Please see https://github.com/psifidotos/Latte-Dock/issues/507

its awc , i dont use latte dock and after update desktop was crashing , had to manually remove the plasmoid

Answer 2 · 2017-05-30T18:49:01.000Z

Definitely. The same problem. Any ideas on how to fix the issue?

Answer 3 · 2017-05-30T18:53:43.000Z

I'm working on it.. :)

Answer 4 · 2017-05-31T07:16:10.000Z

Mostly fixed. Please test.

Known issue: if "show active window only for plasmoid's screen" is checked and you move your active window outside of the plasmoid's screen, it will stay active in the plasmoid until active task is changed.

It works!

One (minor) thing that seems to not work now though is that buttons appear all the time irrespective of the setting: show only when maximized.

Could you check? Should I open a different issue?

Answer 6 · 2017-05-31T15:08:04.000Z

True. It is reproducible. I have the same issue. I was actually going to open it, but you can do it.

Answer 7 · 2017-05-31T15:09:29.000Z

Haven't looked at the code, but tried to tweak the applet's settings in different ways - the option does not work at all.

Answer 8 · 2017-05-31T16:07:51.000Z

IMHO, the original issue here is completely gone. I think it can be closed.

Answer 9 · 2017-05-31T16:12:46.000Z

I agree, and issue #85 has already been opened

Hi, it still crashes for me. This is what i get if i execute plasmashell from the CLI:

KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/bin/plasmashell from kdeinit
sock_file=/run/user/1000/kdeinit5__0
KCrash: crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2

it still crashes for me.

This is weird. Please make sure you don't have kde-store version installed at the same time. Next, please try to test with empty plasma config so there is stock configuration of plasma panel and AWC (after added to panel).

@kupiqu and others: Thanks for reporting this! :)

Answer 13 · 2017-05-31T22:53:58.000Z

Thanks a lot, it worked!. This is what i did in case someone else has the same problem:

Delete plasma's configuration in ~/.config
Delete anything in ~/.local/share/plasma/
Yes, i had a version of this plasmoid from the store in ~/.local/share/plasma/plasmoids/ Most probably that was the problem but because i played safe and deleted everything in ~/.local/share/plasma/ i didn't check if that was the only problem.
