SUMMARY
I built plasma via "kde-builder workspace". It crashes on startup. I traced it
back here:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/union/-/blob/3e135e9f2ce30875aa53a03a009b0ed0cc9d6fc1/src/platform/plasma/metadata.json
. The PlasmaPlatformPlugin expects XDG_SESSION_DESKTOP to be kde, but in the
dev session it's either plasmawayland-dev6 or plasmax11-dev6. As a result, the
PlasmaPlatformPlugin is not used and the session crashes with this logged:
> plasmashell[4211]: Could not find a supported platform plugin for platform
> "wayland" and session "plasmawayland-dev6"
> plasmashell[4211]: Creating a default fallback platform plugin
> plasmashell[4211]: No provider "kcolorscheme" found
I managed to hotfix it by adding plasmawayland-dev6 to the metadata and
rebuilding union.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. kde-builder workspace
2. log into the dev session
3. it crashes
OBSERVED RESULT
Crash
EXPECTED RESULT
No crash.
