Kubuntu Alt+F2 broken after 20.04 upgrade

Ask Ubuntu Asked on November 23, 2021

After upgrade from Kubuntu 19.10 to 20.04, Alt+F2 does nothing. If I run runner from CLI then I have the launcher pop up.

krunner kubuntu

Broken here after 19.10 to 20.04 upgrade.

Perhaps there is a problem with some automatic upgrade process.

Running the following fixed it for me:

/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/kconf_update_bin/krunnerglobalshortcuts

I've solved the issue. Seems like new KDE has two ways for 'run' menu actually 'Command run' and Krunner. So the first one probably introduced recently and stole keybinding from Krunner! If you change it to Krunner then it will work as before (just look for run Krunner keybindings)
