[Bug 1652818] [NEW] KDE touchpad indicator doesn't change icon

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

I added the touchpad status widget to the KDE panel at the top of the
screen, but the icon doesn't change when I enable/disable the touchpad.
The touchpad does get enabled/disabled, it's just that the icon fails to
update.  If I add the widget to the plasma desktop, I get a different
icon which does correctly show the touchpad state by changing the line
colour from black to dark gray - not a great choice, but it works.

I have attached a screen capture of the touchpad icon.  I captured it in
both the enabled and disabled states and the PNGs were byte for byte
identical.

The laptop is a Samsung NP370R5E-A07UK which has a ETPS/2 Elantech
Touchpad according to Xorg.0.log.

I'm using Ubuntu 16.04.1 LTS.  I do not have the transitional kde-
touchpad package installed.  I have plasma-desktop version
4:5.5.5-0ubuntu1 installed.
