E.g. you can also install kdm and gdm in parallel and choose which one to use. update-alternatives maybe? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

After installing plasma-session5, kwin5 auto installed with it, however the old kwin was not auto-removed and is still present
I strongly disagree that kwin5 and kwin should conflict. They can coexist nicely, no need to artificially break that. And I do want to have both installed. Plasma 5 should use kwin5 by default even if the KDE4 version is installed as well, it does here at least.
and is the version that runs by default at bootup instead of kwin5. I think this is a bug because the newer kwin should run by default.
Yes, Plasma5 should run kwin5 by default, and as mentioned already it does so here. And why do you think the KDE4 version is running? What does "ps ux|grep kwin" say? (run inside a Plasma5 session of course) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

that cannot be. i myself even sent patches upstream so switch to kwin_x11 works as intended, and to make sure 4.x and 5.x kwin are coinstallable. how did you concluded kwin/4 is running? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.

I must have made a mistake then after running kwin --version not realizing the executable name had switched. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
