Hi KDE distro packagers,as you probably are aware Plasma 5.5 is the first release shipping a Wayland session file. In the current state the session is not much usable as can be seen in the known issues section. Given that I expect that distributions move the relevant files * startplasmacompositor * startplasma * plasmawayland.desktop into a dedicated package (plasma-desktop-wayland-session) and do not install it by default! We don't want users to select the Wayland session by accident and run into a broken system. Also please see https://community.kde.org/KWin/Packaging for advice on how to package the Wayland session elements. Best Regards Martin Gräßlin
Well... Slackware does not create sub-packages, that does not fit in with our philosophy. I expect that the sources are configured to *not* enable compiling the session components by default? Not having checked out Plasma 5.5 yet, I guess I will eventually find out whether I need to explicitly disable building it, or else delete the offending files from the package afterwards. I do not want to ship stuff with Plasma 5.5 that is really just a tech preview and gives the user the wrong impression.
