Public bug reported:
During the upgrade process, the file kglobalshortcutsrc seems to be
modified at some point. The result is that, after the upgrade, the
shortcuts to launch Krunner were not functional anymore. This is true
for the default alt+space or any other key combination if the shortcut
is modified. This issue occurred on one machine, another went through a
18.04 to 20.04 upgrade without this issue.
This problem seems to be that the [krunner] then [krunner.desktop]
section in kglobalshortcutrc got kind of duplicated duplicated.
The file retrieved from a month old backup:
toggle_mainwindow_visibility=none,none,Show/Hide Konversation
[krunner]
_k_friendly_name=Run Command
run command=Alt+Space\tAlt+F2\tSearch,Alt+Space,Run Command
run command on clipboard contents=Alt+Shift+F2,Alt+Shift+F2,Run Command on
clipboard contents
[ksmserver]
The file after the upgrade (see the duplication!):
toggle_mainwindow_visibility=none,none,Show/Hide Konversation
[krunner]
_k_friendly_name=Run Command
run command=Alt+Space\tAlt+F2\tSearch,Alt+Space,Run Command
run command on clipboard contents=Alt+Shift+F2,Alt+Shift+F2,Run Command on
clipboard contents
[krunner.desktop]
RunClipboard=,Alt+Shift+F2,Run command on clipboard contents
_k_friendly_name=KRunner
_launch=\t\t,Alt+Space\tAlt+F2\tSearch,KRunner
[ksmserver]
The working version, with the [krunner] section removed:
toggle_mainwindow_visibility=none,none,Show/Hide Konversation
[krunner.desktop]
RunClipboard=,Alt+Shift+F2,Run command on clipboard contents
_k_friendly_name=KRunner
_launch=Alt+Space,Alt+Space\tAlt+F2\tSearch,KRunner
