From what I heard, the function was intentionally replaced by the new update-alternative mechanics. Dominique, could you please share the backgrounds please? Thank you!

Desktop > Display manager > DISPLAYMANAGER : gdm (option Xorg only, no sddm)
This option must not be available at all - this value is not read anymore. I suspect that GDM still writes this entry somehow so it appears in YaST again.
Desktop > Windows manager > Default_WM: gnome (no other options like Plasma5)
It says in the description text that the option is not used anymore. However, it should have the value "default" and not "gnome" - does gnome-session write this value? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
