Description:

Starting Plasma 5 with qt 5.4 fails with the message

> Could not start ksmserver. Check your installation.

Downgrading to qt 5.3.2 fixes the issue.

I tried rebuilding plasma-workspace, but that fails too, with

>/usr/lib/libKF5KDELibs4Support.so.5.5.0: undefined reference to `qMessageFormatString(QtMsgType, QMessageLogContext const&, QString const&)'

while linking "testsh".

Maybe all of plasma needs to be rebuilt against qt5.4?

Additional info:
* package version(s)
plasma-workspace 5.1.1
plasma-framework 5.5.0
qt5 5.4.0 (multiple packages)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
- Try to start a plasma session through sddm
