[kde] package kglobalaccel5 broken, no more keyboard shortcuts

hello,

Running artix with kde plasma, after upgrading the packages with pacman -Syu, my keyboard shortcuts weren't working.
also, going into the system settings > workspace > shortcuts, there was a big red error message saying "failed to communicate with global shortcuts daemon"   :o

It appears that this happens after upgrading the package kglobalaccel5 from version 5.115.0-1 to 5.115.0-3
So i downgraded it :
Code: [Select]
sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/kglobalaccel5-5.115.0-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst
then closing my kde session, and login back in, my shortcuts work again :)

(i saw on arch that kde plasma v6 is incoming, so maybe it has to do with it..)
edit: that is, with kde5. once upgraded to kde6, kglobalaccel5 in version 5.115.0-3 does not have the issue.

edit2: solved since upgrade to kde plasma 6
