Can anyone else resize the panel of the directory picker (portal)?

Help

@johnandmegh, apologies for the wait:

  1. Was trying to diagnose the filesystem being really slow, [1] all of a sudden, despite my hardware:

    Processors: 12 × AMD Ryzen 5 7600X 6-Core Processor
Memory: 30.4 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor 1: AMD Radeon RX 5700
Graphics Processor 2: AMD Radeon Graphics
Manufacturer: ASRock
Product Name: X670E Taichi

    I was gonna provide a flamegraph, even though this was tangential, but gee, not even that worked, [2] even after overcoming KDAB/hotspot/issues/711#issue-3021222372.

    In the end, just needed to reboot.

  2. It also took me a while to realise that I’d need to use kwrite admin:///, since code can elevate to the superuser when necessary, but doesn’t do so when it’s merely attempting to access another user’s $HOME.

I don’t see anything of note in xdg-desktop-portal-kderc:

  1. #!/usr/bin/env bash
sudo git diff --no-index /home/test/.config/xdg-desktop-portal-kderc $HOME/.config/xdg-desktop-portal-kderc

  2. diff --git a/home/test/.config/xdg-desktop-portal-kderc b/home/RokeJulianLockhart/.config/xdg-desktop-portal-kderc

It could be kdeglobals’s’ History Items[$e] section by that reasoning, although it appears correctly escaped:

Thanks for the assistance. I wonder whether this can be diagnosed by someone unwilling to modify the code of the picker (like me), though.
