Version 2.0.5 of snapd in -proposed has a fix for this script. See
https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1575014 for details and even more
problems seemingly unrelated to snapd, but caused by its broken
$XDG_DATA_DIRS handling.
It's actually perfectly fine to not have the variable set at all if only

@Symaxtry to make it:
else
if [ -z "$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS" ]; then

so the default is only defined in one place (and an update of the

Title:
Plasma fails to load: "all shell packages
I was able to fix the issue between Snappy and XDG_DATA_DIRS by
modifying /etc/X11/Xsession.d/60x11-common_xdg_path to read as follows:
# This file is sourced by Xsession(5), not executed.
# Add additionnal xdg paths depending on selected desktop session
DEFAULT_XDG_CONFIG_DIRS='/etc/xdg'

jklasdf, I think you are correct. It seems more related to the bug here:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kubuntu-meta/+bug/1571564
which you also mention as possibly related, even if my problem didn't
appear in the same way or at the same tie (straight after upgrade/when
installing). Soet
I have very similar issues to those reported here. Upgraded to 16.04
from 15.10 (from australia - au.archive.ubuntu.com seemed flakey when I
started, but got there after a few days of trying). Couldn't start
plasma, could only get to a terminal prompt. Running startx yielded the
exact screen grabs
I don't think you actually have the same problem as us. See the picture
attached to the bug report...if alt-f2 is working and krunner doesn't
crash you probably have a different problem. I'd recommend opening a
separate bug report with just your symptoms.
If you want to check if your problem is be
After reading jklasdf comment (#13) I tried to purge snapd (using apt-get purge
ad i dont have aptitude installed. Rebooted. Same problem
echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS yields:
/usr/share//usr/share/xsessions/plasma:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/var/lib/snapd/desktop
So i reinstall snapd, created a symlink
For anyone curious:
Non-functional black-screen-with-pointer X:
$ echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS
:/var/lib/snapd/desktop
Workaround second X with plasma:
$ echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS
/usr/share//usr/share/xsessions/plasma:/usr/local/share/:/usr/share/:/var/lib/snapd/desktop
After fully removing snapd:
$ echo $XDG
Doesn't quite fix it for me.
Purging and reinstalling snapd had no effect.
~/.local/share/plasma already had one thing in it, so I created a
variety of new links into /usr/share/plasma/*. That gave me a KDE
splash screen, the popup about plasmashell being missing went away, and
the crash report
Wow, I never would have found that. Can you please file a bug against snapd?
Seems to be a show breaker.
Cheers,
Scarlett

Alright thanks for the help scarlett.
I looked into it a bit more. Purging snapd for me seems to solve the
problem: running strace -f on krunner, it seemed to be trying to access
~/.local/share/plasma and /var/lib/snapd/desktop/plasma instead of the
correct location /usr/share/plasma. I temporaril
Afraid this is over my head. I am just a packager and this seems beyond
packaging issues. Have you reported this upstream KDE (krunner) Sorry I
am not much help. I had answers to the two items I mentioned only.

Further to my comment #3:
X ran in parallel with the instance of KDE/Plasma that was started
accidentally via kdesudo and/or teamviewer daemon for an hour or two
(confusing some software), then X died in the background. Plasma is
still running, days later.

I need to know a few things:
What language? There were some missing translations that caused a series of
issues like this one.
Video card? Nvidia seems to be also causing similiar issues.

installed or it would not be core dumpin
