For diagnostic purposes, what is the output of the commands

uname -a
lsb_release -crid
apt policy kdeconnect

By the way, kdeconnect works fine with the phone.

Thank you.

I assume that you hit bug #2109830

There is already an updated version of the kdeconnect package in the plucky-proposed repository which will probably be rolled out within the coming days.

(Maybe installing the package qml6-module-org-kde-people works as a temporary workaround)

Ok, thank you for your help.

I tried to install qml6-module-org-kde-people but that didn't help (same error).

Correction.
Installing qml6-module-org-kde-people did actually help.

Thank you, again.
