When triggered via kglobalaccel, these calls fail with KIO/Wayland errors: kwin_wayland_wrapper[...]: kf.kio.gui: "dbus-send" "Command not found" Affected files identified (examples): KScreen: /usr/share/kglobalaccel/org.kde.kscreen.desktop (Exec uses dbus-send ...) Plasma Desktop / Touchpad: /usr/share/kglobalaccel/org.kde.touchpadshortcuts.desktop (Exec uses dbus-send ...) Expected behavior: Global shortcuts should use native D-Bus integration, C++ helper logic, or qdbus instead of assuming the external dbus-send binary (from legacy dbus utilities / dbus-bin) is present on the host system. Actual behavior: Shortcuts fail to execute if dbus-send is missing from the host environment.
