On: KDE Plasma development switches to Qt 6 tomorrow

5.27 is the first KDE release in a while that has actually broken things for me. Fedora recently updated to it and the breeze theme broke, causing me constant crashes and glitchy window decorations.

Whenever I hear about completely broken KDE installs, it's Fedora in 90% of cases.

Yeah. In my case, the Discover app didn't fully update all of the packages like it was supposed to. Easy enough of a fix, though I doubt an average PC user would have been able to figure that out.

Discover really has never worked all that well for me when it comes to updating packages. I have used the terminal to install updates for a long time now, with both Ubuntu and openSUSE.

That's probably good practice, though I feel that the updater which pops up in your tray to let you know updates are ready should "just work".

I have a feeling PackageKit is to blame here, since I remember Gnome Software being just as bad.

Do not use GUI package managers except YaST. They are all terrible.
