Hi Rob,

many thanks for your reply. Indeed the upgrade to Debian trixie installed a 
firewall:

plasma-firewall is a new Recommends of plasma-desktop, and will pull in 
firewalld with a default ruleset

I assume as soon as Debian trixie gets released, more users will run into 
that. 

Thanks again
Rainer
