So this seems to be a KDE update issue. kde4 doesn't seem to exist any more after the update. So the DEFAULT_WM is set to an invalid parameter.
Indeed - and as such the current assignee and component (Plasma 5 workspace) is correct
We do rely on this to be set correctly however.
Makes sense
We could add even more sanity checks and replace the WINDOWMANAGER with a default when it is obvious that the value in /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager is bogus to ... maybe twm?
That's cruel :) But despite all the cruelty, might be better nevertheless... it would be nice to fallback to something and inject a dialog into the session, instructing the careless user/'admin' about why it now 'looks so different to what was expected') - but I'd rather file this as a new feature, independent of this bug (which is about updating an old system to TW) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
