Bug ID: 483908
Summary: Old effects cannot be replaced by new ones
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: 6.0.2
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: effects-window-management
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: dm...@vk.com
Target Milestone: ---
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to System Settings > Window Manager > Desktop Effects
2. Click the Load new effects button
2. Copy the effect from Plasma 5 and place it in the
/home/user/.local/share/kwin/effects/ folder
3. Load the same effect and get an error
OBSERVED RESULT
When updating, I still had the old effects from Plasma 5, they did not
appear, but ultimately, if I install the same effect that is already in this
folder, I will get an error that the installation cannot continue because this
file already exists in this folder.
EXPECTED RESULT
The folder with this effect should be overwritten if I decide to install it
on a new Plasma, or there should be a new folder for Plasma 6 effects.
