            Bug ID: 471906
           Summary: 2023-07-02 Neon Unstable update creates infinite login
                    loop
    Classification: I don't know
           Product: kde
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

SUMMARY

symbols.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1a. Either install Neon Unstable from most recent live cd,
(neon-unstable-20230702-1120.iso) or 
1b. Do pkcon refresh and sudo pkcon update from previously installed, (and
functioning) Neon Unstable partition 
2.  At login screen, type (correct) password at the prompt and press Enter

OBSERVED RESULT
- Screen goes black for a couple of seconds and then shows the login screen
again.  If you again type your (correct) password in, it again goes black for a
couple of seconds then shows login screen again, ad infinitum, (i.e. you can't
get to your desktop at all).  
- It's definitely not a password issue as if you type the incorrect password
in, you still get the shake and "incorrect password" message.
- Problem definitely does not exist on a system installed from
"neon-unstable-20230625-1121.iso" so long as the system is not updated, (as of
2023-07-02).  As soon as the system is updated, the problem will exist, making
the computer useless.  Note: updating from the 20230625-1121 iso up through
2023-07-01 worked fine.  Something was pushed into the updates on 2023-07-02,
(before the iso was generated) that caused the problem.

EXPECTED RESULT
Expected to be logged into the desktop with a functioning system.
