emerge --info

When I open the "Add Widgets..." dialog in a panel, their preview are not displayed (screenshot attached). Here is what I checked:

1) the files are in the right place with the right permission:

ls -la /usr/share/icons/breeze-dark/applets/256/
total 2504
drwxr-xr-x 2 root root   4096 25 mai   20:47 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root   4096 25 mai   20:47 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   1428  7 avril 09:16 empty.svg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  66318  7 avril 09:16 org.kde.ktpcontactlist.svg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  98372  7 avril 09:16 org.kde.muonnotifier.svg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  38104  7 avril 09:16 org.kde.plasma.activitybar.svg
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  22935  7 avril 09:16 org.kde.plasma.analogclock.svg
[...]

2) the issue occurs regardless of the icon theme, the plasma theme, the panel orientation, the panel size or the used language (English and French tested) 

3) when I try to drag and drop a widget, its icon is displayed under the mouse cursor (not its preview).

4) the use of the last version of AppletDelegate.qml reduces the amount of error in the plasmashell log, but don't fix the defect.

5) I don't see this issue only on SuSE Tumbleweed

What versions of Qt do you have installed?
Comment 5 Solstiss 2019-06-01 18:43:34 UTC
I use qt 5.12; "emerge -pv dev-qt/qtwidgets" returns:
dev-qt/qtwidgets-5.12.3:5/5.12::gentoo  USE="gtk png xcb -debug (-gles2) -test"

With a new user who has never started kde, the behavior is the same.

All the Qt packages please.

Plasma is what you start.

I did this test to check if the problem was not caused by a configuration file in my ~/.config or ~/.local/share/
Comment 9 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2019-06-01 19:10:26 UTC
When did it start to fail for you, if it ever worked? Is it a regression over a previous Plasma version?
Comment 10 Solstiss 2019-06-01 19:27:51 UTC
I have already seen it work correctly, but not in the previous version (in the stable Gentoo history). I was hoping the recent update would fix this problem and I opened this bug precisely because it's not the case.
Comment 11 Solstiss 2019-07-01 17:24:52 UTC
Well, I got tired of it, I reinstalled everything since stage 3 (starting from a blank configuration also in /etc). 

I no longer have the problem and I can no longer reproduce it. I think the bug can be closed...
Comment 12 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2019-07-01 17:26:11 UTC
Thanks for checking back. Must have definitely been some local issue, missing files or permissions...
