[BUG] - 3.2.14 does not export profile as code under Kubuntu 25.10

[arcartel]

When r2modman loaded on Kubuntu 25.10 clicking on export profile as a code nothing happens, however the applocks the mouse as if something occurs and several minutes later mouse is freed , yet no window with code is generated nor is code in clipboard.

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Go to 'r2modman'
2. Click on 'export profile as a code'
3. Scroll down to '?"
4. See error

Expected behavior
r2modman pops up a window saying this is your code and it is copied to clipboard.

Export Profile as a file works just takes a long time and ends with a 2.36GB file (HD Textures for valheim)

Also same results in kubuntu 26.04 and version 3.2.15
hit export as profile and it just freezes and hangs and then unlocks without giving a code.
If your not going to fix it then remove the option or find an api that will not cause the issue

Fresh install of kubuntu in a VM and it works as expected:

It's very likely that you are getting the error, you just aren't giving it enough time.
It does the zip generation before then sending it off and getting the error back.

The maximum export size is like 15MB.

There can be changes done on our end to pre-calculate the size, but it's also not particularly easy because zipped content size is not the same as on-disk file size. I don't think it's overly pressing as 2GB+ profiles aren't that common.

This probably needs more thinking of an approach, and likely won't be tackled in the near future.
