[kio-extras] [Bug 414097] Preview folder icons not repainted automatically after color scheme change

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=414097

--- Comment #14 from Sadi <[email protected]> ---
I think I've found what has been creating this problem for so long, and fixed
it today with a simple search and replace operation in the file
"~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc".
I was actually trying to troubleshoot another problem: often getting a black
blank desktop (missing wallpaper and context menu) upon login, but with all
panels and widgets working.
I first examined the output of "journalctl -b | grep -i plasma", and noticed
many errors regarding the wallpaper plugin, which prompted me to take a look at
the file "~/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc" where I saw many
"Containments" included the line "wallpaperplugin=org.kde.image" while the
wallpaper plugin in use is "org.kde.slideshow".
So I replaced all instances of "wallpaperplugin=org.kde.image" with
"wallpaperplugin=org.kde.slideshow" (and also removed a block regarding that
unused wallpaper plugin).
The problem is gone now after logging out, and back in.
I hope it proves to be the end of this longstanding problem for me and all
those who have the same problem.
However, I think this shows that there's a need for better management of
configuration files of KDE Plasma, making sure that no such leftovers remain
after configuration changes.
