KDE is removed again

[cas]

for a couple of hours I had zero packages to be removed. now  python-apt, reportbug-ng are to be removed.
but i am not sure, whether these are related to the kde problems or whether this is by chance.

[cas]

hi all,

back again in init 5. An

apt-get install -s   kde-plasma-desktop kdeconnect kinfocenter kwin-addons libpowerdevilcore2 plasma-desktop plasma-widgets-addons plasma-workspace powerdevil


looked good today and an

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt-get install

made it. So everything working fine again.

[cas]

it seems the du went through fine, but some icons in the systray and control panel (or how this is called) became quite small.
some of them I use quite often, so this is not so nice.
Is there a solution to this?

The sddm theme is broken now. The configuration module for sddm does not have any themes to configure despite them being installed.

The sddm theme is broken now. The configuration module for sddm does not have any themes to configure despite them being installed.

Here is the bug:
https://github.com/sddm/sddm/issues/682

If you want back the sddm_kcm feature, you have to downgrade sddm

LANG=C apt policy sddm
sddm:
  Installed: 0.13.0-1
  Candidate: 0.14.0-1~siduction.1
  Version table:
     0.14.0-1~siduction.1 500

apt install <foo>=<version>
apt-mark hold <foo>


Or wait till it is fixed.

or try as root

Following KDE transition, some packages are still to be removed; can I let them go?
Thank you

The following packages will be REMOVED:
         cgmanager libcgmanager0 libnih-dbus1 libnih1



[piper]

You need to show the full output of

Code Auswählen Erweitern

apt update && apt full-upgrade

libnih1 : Depends: libc6

[jyp]

Thanks <piper> for the quick reply.
An apt update and apt full-upgrade does not show any package to be removed now. Only _gwneview_  and _kspapshot_ have been kept back. I suppose that this is not a problem.

jyp,


ksnapshot is being superseded by kde-spectacle.
