The plasmashell binary is not even in the plasma-desktop package...

ok sorry.... I thought it was there. I cannot find which package it is... It's just that in kde4, you have to start plasma-desktop (or restart when there is a bug) but in kde5 it's plasma-shell.

Therefore I find it a little confusiong.

plasma-shell is a generic name for plasma-desktop or (i suppose:) plasma-netbook.

Sorry again for the bug which doesn't seem to be one =D
