I downgraded all 5.12 package to find that the problem does appear at the installation of this specific package.
I updated a fedora version without any problem.
If I downgrade to 5.11.5 everything is working as expected.
I tried to remove totally all the 5.12 package and reinstall them but the problem is still there.
I tried to create a new user account to be sure that the problem was not coming from a specific configuration on my account, problem still present.
I am willing to help to understand what is happening but without error message it is difficult.
Here the link to a bug report (with an image of the problem) I opened on kde bugzilla https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=390150

$ kpackagetool5 -l -t Plasma/Wallpaper -p /usr/share/plasma/wallpapers/

> kpackagetool5 -l -t Plasma/Wallpaper -p /usr/share/plasma/wallpapers/
Listing service types: Plasma/Wallpaper in /usr/share/plasma/wallpapers/
kf5.karchive: bzDecompress returned -5
I had a file: kpluginindex.json in /usr/share/plasma/wallpapers/
which create the problem. I have absolutely no idea from where it came from... So it is probably me the guilty person on the subject and I want to apologize to have bother you and I want to thank you a lot to have solve me the problem.
I removed this file and now the configuration is back.
You can close the bug.
