Hi everyone, I ran apt full-upgrade last month and accidentally deleted a couple packages that weren’t supposed to be removed, due to me not paying enough attention. I could recover most of the system just fine, since most of the missing features and related packages were obvious to me. However, I still couldn’t figure out why transparency is not working on KDE, both in Wayland and X. I suspected it could be a missing compositor, but libwayland and libqt6waylandcompositor6 (and related packages) are all installed (and that wouldn’t explain why it isn’t also working on X).

I have attached a screenshot to illustrate what I mean.

I would appreciate if anyone could help me figure out what package might be missing that is causing this issue. Thanks in advance!

    I can’t believe, I seem to be the first to ask this, but are maybe graphics drivers broken? Are you on Nvidia?

    Those black squares for the status bar icons, I think, I’ve seen before somewhere, so I’m at least guessing that your problem isn’t a completely new problem…
