Bug Description
Plasma forgets settings made in the settings dialog with the title "Desktop Settings - Plasma Desktop Shell", accessed by right clicking on the KDE desktop background and choosing "Default Desktop Settings".
In the View category, the Layout is set to "Default Desktop" and Wallpaper to "Slideshow". The settings I make in the Images section are applied (different wallpaper is shown), when clicking "Apply", but immediately forgotten and reverted when clicking OK (one of the system standard wallpapers is shown).
The selections affected are "System wallpapers", "My downloaded wallpapers" and "Custom folders".
Other settings, like "Change images every" setting seem to work properly.
The same applies for Layout "Grouping Desktop", "Search and Launch", and probably all other layouts.
Possibly related packages that I have installed:
kde-wallpapers, kde-wallpapers-

Hi there!
Thanks for reporting this bug! Your bug seems to be a problem with the KDE program itself, and not with our KDE packages. While we appreciate your issue, it would be better if it was tracked at https:/ /bugs.kde. org, so that the KDE developers can deal with this speedily and have direct communication with you as the reporter for more effective debugging.
Thanks!
