hello, I hope someone seen this before yesterday I updated about 200 packages and after reboot I noticed several things the keyboard layout indicator is not present even that the settings in "regional & language"=>"Keyboard layout" are enable and show both.
another problem I suspect connected is when screensaver is running and I want to unlock the little window where I usually put my password in is simply gray square.
hope that was somewhat describing my problem. if someone can guide me to a way to investigate and restore the keyboard layout appearing again I would be very happy. Thanks, YB.

The keyboard layout indicator now uses the new KStatusNotifierItem class instead of the old KSystemTrayIcon. This implements a new, more modern systray protocol. It can fall back to the old one when run under a non-KDE desktop, but you're running a non-KDE systray under KDE, which isn't really supported.
Try disabling the status notifier watcher kded4 service under System Settings / Advanced / Service management, that should make KStatusNotifierItem fallback to the legacy systray protocol which is supported by cairo-dock.
