The lockscreen as I see it when kscreenlocker_greet crashes
SUMMARY
When I lock my screen, I see an error message telling me how to unlock my
screen again using a console.
It looks like I corrupted my qmlcache that kscreenlocker_greet uses.
The file
~/.cache/kscreenlocker_greet/qmlcache/5c5649af53bb78a2255cc07dba00b5d037690788.qmlc
is truncated to 12288 bytes on my system (which is exactly 12 KiB).
When I remove the file, it will be regenerated with a size of 16068 bytes and
the screen lock works as expected.
I can only speculate, how this file corruption happened. In my opinion, the
most likely explanation is a "full disk" that caused the file not to be written
to the end. After this "incident" the file stayed corrupted until I manually
deleted it.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make sure, the screen was locked at least once before, so that the following
file exists.
2. truncate -s 12288
~/.cache/kscreenlocker_greet/qmlcache/5c5649af53bb78a2255cc07dba00b5d037690788.qmlc
3. Lock the screen.
OBSERVED RESULT
A black screen with white text that cannot be unlocked graphically. It gives me
instructions, how to unlock using the console. (See attached screenshot)
EXPECTED RESULT
When a cache file was not completely written to disk before, I would expect
that it is not used the next time but regenerated instead. The screen should be
able to lock as normal.
