Dear Maintainer,

opening systemsettings while running gnome-shell most of the interface
is just black squares. The Appearance tab is completly empty.
This also results in black squares in ohter Qt based applications like
kdenlive.


Opening systemsettings in a temrinal I get some errors that might be
relevant:

turns out the issue was libqt5quick5-gles everything looks correct after installing libqt5quick5
is there any way to avoid libqt5quick5-gles getting installed on desktops?

The question is: did you manually install any *-gles package yourself? They shouldn't be automatically installed, but we had issues like that before. If you have any dpkg/apt logs, the better.

Thanks!!!!

It was not installed manually as far as i remember but sadly no logs left over from the time libqt5quick5-gles was pulled in, the system has been installed for a long time so this could go back years. If I encounter the issue on other installations will try to see if I can find any trace.
