4. How did you get this error? Are there any steps to procedure it?

  1. Today saw there was an update and ran Parrot-Upgrade, which removed some packages, including KDE desktop. Re-installed KDE desktop, but having some issues getting back icons.
  2. I think theres also an issue with package, qt5-default, broken package dependencies with libqt5gui5-gles and qtbase5-gles-dev.
  3. GTK theme settings gone in the application style menu
  4. why did these packages get removed?

I tried using different themes, icon set, deleted icon cache, still doesn’t come up.

5. Error log or screenshot

3. Any other information about this idea

Thank you for the report! Likely the problem is from Debian side and well we are trying to understand this problem then tell Debian KDE team about this.

Bug spotted. libqt5gui5 and libqt5gui5-gles is the problem.

Yes, I mentioned the fix in Telegram

From what I can tell the gles package is nowhere to be found in my fs and it still wants to remove kde. So I’m still unable to upgrade and have no libqt5gui-gles to purge neither before the update nor after.

p/s: from screenshot, bug is confirmed on Ubuntu KDE as well.

That’s rare, I didn’t experience those issues and recently upgrade my system automatically, I just installed KDE Security ISO and it is working fine. Also I couldn’t find libqt5gui5-gles but libqt5gui5.

if you try sudo apt insatll qt5-defaults or something like that i’m sure you’ll see the error. The problem could be fixed from Debian side.
