Plugins duplicated in Krita

Hi

Why are the plugins I install duplicated in Krita and what should I do about it?

Why this happens is unknown to me, but since I’m not aware of any negative impact on plugin function related to this behavior so far, I tolerate it.

Check whether the .desktop files for the duplicated plugins are present twice in the folder?

Sorry in which folder do I look for that?

“pykrita” in the resources-folder of Krita.

Ps … I just imported another plugin … and again it was automatically duplicated. Must be a bug

This has been known for quite some time, there are already topics on this if I remember correctly, but whether it has been reported as a bug yet is unknown to me.

You can open a bug report on https://bugs.kde.org/ if you would like to see it fixed. This is an interesting experience if you haven’t done it yet. You have to open an account there first, you need a valid mail address, preferably one that can be seen by the public, because that’s what it will be.
:wink:
Furthermore, it is expected that you describe the error, how it occurs or could be “provoked”, what you would expect as normal behavior, and how you imagine it to be fixed. A detailed list of what is expected from a bug report can be found here: ⚓ T7492 How To Report a Bug also here is an explanation: 2. User Guide — Bugzilla 5.0.4+ documentation

I checked … C:\Users\Rob\AppData\Roaming\krita\pykrita … only one .desktop file of each

It only duplicate non-default plugin like this topic?

Yep that’s right and thanks for sharing Odins thread … bug still here in 5.0.6 then
