[opensuse-factory] Recent "zypper dup" against Tumbleweed borks KDE5 Plasma
Hello Factory / Tumbleweed folks! Short version: recent zypper dup to Tumbleweed doesn't let me log in via KDE5/Plasma, forcing me to use LXDE. This is suboptimal ;) History: - Originally installed Tumbleweed off DVD based on the 2015-03-15 release. - Desktop was KDE4 based, lots of packages installed, etc. - On May 16th, When KDE5 / Plasma5 was hauled into Tumbleweed, I could no longer log in, with crashes similar to my current ones with krunner and plasmashell. - Forum posts recommended deleting the ~/.kde4 directory, which **worked!** Now: - More recently (ie: last ten days?), another update to KDE5 was pushed out. - Said update to KDE5 and Tumbleweed results to crashes on KDM login against plasmashell and krunner, with GUI dialog boxes saying the processes erred out. - Deleting ~/.kde4 doesn't work. - A different forum post mentioned adding "autoload=false" to ~/.config/kded5rc 's kscreen section. This too did not work. - That said, the above-mentioned purdy dialog boxes let me access developer info and get stack dumps, which I saved and attached to this email. Are there packages from kde4 that really should be blacklisted and purged from a KDE5 + Plasma install? Anything people can see from the stack traces that could hint at a solution? LXDE is functional, but not pretty, ya know?..... Ken Savage
