Details

Description:
I'm running KDE 5.23.1 with kernel 5.14.12-arch1-1 with QT version 5.15.2 using xorg display.
Every drop-down does nothing when clicking on it. It is not the case with the github version which I downloaded and tried successfully


Additional info:
* package version(s) 0.17.2.3-1
* config and/or log files etc.
* link to upstream bug report, if any

Steps to reproduce:
Run this AUR package on KDE and try to use any dropdown (for instance in settings > log level.). Nothing will happen.
This task depends upon

It looks like this may be an issue with Arch's qt packages: https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/issues/3938#issuecomment-1266816615

In the linked report there are affected users from at least 3 different distros, so definitely not an issue with Arch packages.

In any case, I also tested what the linked comment did, namely downloading qt with qt-downloader and then running monero-wallet-gui with LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to the downloaded qt 5.15.2 version. Works fine with the downloaded qt version and I also noticed a difference:

The following line is logged 71 times, only when using the qt version from the repos, using which it doesn't work:
2022-11-25 14:39:49.174 W Qt Quick Layouts: Detected recursive rearrange. Aborting after two iterations.

I also reported this upstream.

@devhyper on GitHub found a workaround: https://github.com/monero-project/monero-gui/issues/3938#issuecomment-1327914535

Install qt5ct and start monero-wallet-gui with QT_QPA_PLATFORMTHEME=qt5ct.
Apparently that disables KDE's theming of monero-wallet-gui.

Please report this to KDE then (under the plasma-integration product)

Will be fixed in the next release.
