I wrote a toy plugin for QGIS-3 (2.99 Ubuntu 16.04), which worked for quite a while. But after a recent upgrade, the plugin disappeared from the QGIS toolbar while the rest of QGIS seem to be working fine.
I have checked that the ~/.qgis3/python/plugins/
folder is still present. I tried to use pb_tool deploy
to re-install the plugin. But the plugin still wouldn't show in the toolbar.
Does someone know what could have gone wrong?

Perhaps the qgis3 data folder has been moved to a different place with the upgrade of nightly versions?
With a freshly installed QGIS2.99 (revision dcec6bb), the trusted
pluginbuilder3
plugin seems to install to~/.local/share/QGIS/QGIS3/profiles/default/python/plugins/pluginbuilder3/
instead of~/.qgis3/...
So, the plugin should be copied to:
You can similarly install and locate a well-known plugin to find out the right folder for your machine.
