Maybe (likely) my fault that I installed “the wrong thing” , but now with the update it also wants to update electron22 and electron25 , just downloaded ~40+ GB (just for electron22 ? … which took a while) now compiling the whole thing … I might need to look into why I have installed it (actually just ~ 3 weeks ago).
Option B : Do a fresh clean version 24 install. Wen ISO ?
I’m only responding in the spirit of the wording of the above question, which is that, yes, there are a few issues, but they are simply Plasma bugs — and mostly 15-minute bugs, I would say. Other than that, everything went smoothly, but then again, I update Manjaro the smart way, and I pay attention to all Announcements threads — including for the Testing and Unstable branches. 
Everything depends on whether these are qt5 or qt6 applications. kvantum was updated to qt6, so if you want continued kvantum support in qt5 applications, then you need to install kvantum-qt5 — it’s an optional dependency of the qt6 version of kvantum now.
Negative. In Plasma 5; those were handled by khotkeys, which was dropped for Plasma 6.
Select — or install, if you don’t have it on your system already — one of the Nerd-flavored fonts, such as Noto Sans Mono Nerd.
My default UI language changed for no apparent reason.
I have English as my UI language and German as my format language:
This has worked for a long time, but since this update my UI is now in German as well.
Upgrade worked without problems.
mesa 24.0.6-1 compiled without problems with “-D video-codecs=vc1dec,h264dec,h264enc,h265dec,h265enc” entry in PKGBUILD
SoftMaker Office 2024 crashes at launch - able to submit crash log to SoftMaker ← created manjaro support entry for this under Support - Software & Applications
Have to rebuild the following python3.11 libraries one-by-one with pamac build [lib]:
protonvpn-cli
protonvpn-gui
pyside2
python-jade-application-kit
python-manjaro-sdk
python-proton-client
python-protonvpn-nm-lib
python-shiboken2
Able to rebuild all except:
python-jade-application-kit
python-manjaro-sdk
Used pamac gui to remove those packages and dependencies.
Also recommend to rebuild python-shiboken2 before trying to rebuild pyside2 as the former rebuilds pyside2 also.
Most likely can remove pyside2 and python-shiboken2
I’m using KDE but I still update through Konsole. I didn’t have custom configurations so after reboot twice every thing works fine.
This is by far the most broken, frustrating and ugliest update. Plasma 6 looks like crap, all themes are off, the paddings and layouts are off, my login screen is broken, my splash screen is broken, there is a constant lag and stutter every 20-30 seconds, jesus chrirst.
Sounds as if you have things like incompatible themes.
Please review the many related posts on the subject.
(some are even in this thread)
Plasma hangs frequently. Is unresponsive. No reaction for clicks, even in other gui programs started. However my global shortcut for showing a console works. After a minute it gets back to operational.
Here I clicked a link in firefox and moved a mouse, but it did not recognize my mouseup and interpreted it as drag and drop operation. Then plasma froze.

My incompatible theme is called default Breeze 
A general setting Wayland or X11 selection wouldn’t be bad…
Hey, where is the simple task manager gone? The app with global shortcut Ctrl + Esc?
It’s replaced with System Monitor (the shortcut is Meta + Esc)
Then you should still clear your configs and cache
https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/KDE#Configuration_related
And/or remove old/incompatible widgets.
May be similar for packages if you have a bunch of unsupported/incompatible ones.
If you really need help then open a thread.
oh boy, I always fear those huge updates.
So far so good - many thanks for your hard work!
Encountered same minor issue i.s. the system icons are way too small - is it still fixable with the solution:
Same here… clicking on these systray icons only gives me that black dot.
I cannot find it anymore, but if I remember it correctly I saw a similar bug report on a different forum for a different distribution some days ago. So probably not a Manjaro problem but a KDE bug. I’m using Wayland, btw.
@manjaro team: otherwise, no problems. Thank you for your effort! (That shouldn’t be forgotten over all these complaints.
At least for KDE this is a major update for which the KDE developers intentionally choose to end support for some features, make some widgets incompatible and, most importantly, upgrade Qt. Given that, I’m impressed with the low number of issues reported.)
gnome-keyring doesn’t work for me. It is a known issue, however I haven’t been able to make it work with the instructions posted on the link above.
Also, Olive’s interface is not getting updated when working with streams. If you know the key-bindings, it works, but the UI is not updated and for something more complicated then crop/move, it is useless.
Edit: Gnview stopped displaying WEBP images
(KDE Plasma 6, Kernel 6.6, AMD CPU, with AMD iGPU)
That’s exactly what I did. I also installed a Java interpreter and removed it after the update. Thank you.
Completely resetting is pretty much a guarantee - but once you’ve isolated (if it’s possible) the offender, then you can pretty much re-import most of the stuff.
That’s not specific to Plasma6 - but it’s more likely to help ensure that your bugs are real bugs.
My last bug was a launcher in .local/share/applications - tidied that up and it’s been pretty stable since (7 days up yesterday).
