I am writing this on a machine that's been downgraded back to 5.12.5-1, where kwin works fine.

kwin_x11 doesn't seem to have a verbose output option. I'll try to capture a useful log,
but in the meantime, this update needs to be blocked from getting into testing unless
I'm literally the only person that is experiencing this.

The bug originally presented on a machine that was running testing (and not unstable).

I had used aptitude to pull a (presumably minimal) set of dependencies allowing kwin-x11
from unstable to be installed. That configuration---which naturally satisfied all stated
dependencies---generated the bug.

Using purely unstable does not cause this bug.

I am reducing the severity to wishlist because, while it would be nice to have accurate
dependency information, most users probably aren't going to experience this.
