It is really a bad idea to add many random people who have nothing to do with the problem, but not including the one for which this bug is relevant.
The correct way to handle it: assign it to KDE, because it looks like a sddm configuration problem.
I did NOT add random people to the bug.
Since it was a problem with a PAM configuration file, I ran osc to find out who the PAM people were and I added those people to the bug.
How exactly is the typical end user supposed to determine that KDE was the correct component ?
A LARGE percentage of the time when submitting bug reports, the component or area that I want to assign a bug to is NOT in the list.
Everyone is NOT intimately familiar with every piece of software to know which items belong in the various categories when they are NOT in the component list.
We just set the component to "other", and let the triage people figure it out. Which is an extra step, granted. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from Elesar, using openSUSE Leap 15.4)
