Description: GDM deduplicates plasmawayland.desktop and
plasma.desktop because they have the same name strings.
Package versions: extra/gdm 3.34.1-1 (gdm) extra/plasma-wayland-session 5.17.5-1 (plasmawayland.desktop) extra/plasma-workspace 5.17.5-1 (plasma.desktop) Exhibited behaviour: The problem is that gdm only shows the plasma.desktop entry (and the wayland gnome desktop entry, which confirms it does scan /usr/share/wayland-clients/). Desired behaviour: It should show both entries. Some more detail: https://www.reddit.com/r/gnome/comments/dim3fo/gdm_does_not_see_the_plasma_wayland_session/f5nyjgi/ The clue is that apparently, gdm deduplicates entries with the same name, thus hiding the wayland plasma session. |
