Gwenview problems

[joneall]

The less serious problem is that every time I open Gwenview I must once more tell it to sort by date. When I go to do that, sort by date is already selected, but not yet done. This has been a minor but annoying problem for some months.

More seriously, since all the updates for Plasma 6, Gwenview crashes so frequently, it is practically unusable.

Strangely enough I have the exact same problem with Gwenview in Debian 12 with Plasma - nowhere else (e.g. it does work in KDE neon 6 for me)…
I keep forgetting about it (it is somehow minor…), but deleting preferences or cache files did not help at all.

So if anyone has an idea I would also be interested in a solution for this!


Concerning the crashes: the first thing I would do is to test if they also occur in a new user account…
