This is not a bug but rather a new feature request
SUMMARY
Currently in the Info Center application the Display manager being used is not
shown on the main page. The items that are shown are KDE Plasma Version, KDE
Frameworks Version, QT Version, Kernel Version and Graphics Platform. Along
with this the Display manager being used, i.e. either SDDM or Plasma Login
Manager or LightDM or KDM or something else.
The tool "inxi" does show the display manager being used via the command "inxi
-Sxx".
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Launch the Info Center by going to the KDE Launcher > System > Info Center.
Or using the command "/usr/bin/kinfocenter" in a terminal/shell.
2. Navigate to Basic Information > About this system.
3. On the right hand side you will see two primary sections, Software and
Hardware.
4. Look for reference of Display manager being used
OBSERVED RESULT
The Display manager being used is not listed.
EXPECTED RESULT
Below the Graphics Platform key there should be a key that says "Display
Manager" and the value of this key should be the Name of the Display manager
and its version. For example in case of SDDM it should show "SDDM ver 0.21.06".
In case of LightDM display manager the value should be "LightDM ver 1.32.06".
If you want to omit the version of put in as part of a different key that also
works.
