Description Rex Dieter 2015-08-19 21:28:47 UTC

plasma-workspace's kuiserver5 was made to be parallel-installable with kde-runtime's kuiserver, except they both try to claim/use
org.kde.kuiserver
on dbus.

We only noticed this in fedora, because initial testing of kdbus (kernel dbus) exposed this (and kdbus disallows it)

Reproducible: Always

Yep, it hit me and other user too while testing plasma-workspace-units

Not sure what would be preferred way of fixing this..

Comment 3 Rex Dieter 2015-08-20 14:47:29 UTC

My guess: if the kde4 kuiserver cannot be replaced by kuiserver5 (which I assume is true), then kuiserver5 needs to change to use a different dbus address, probably (something like):
org.kde.kuiserver5

Comment 4 Rex Dieter 2015-10-07 22:09:31 UTC

I have a proof-of-concept patch that adapts things to use org.kde.kuiserver5 instead.  I'll do a bit more testing and submit to reviewboard soonish.

Comment 6 Hrvoje Senjan 2015-10-12 18:15:42 UTC

May i suggest another solution: create a CMake option for kde-runtime not to build kuiserver. (Whether this should be ON or OFF by default, i'd rather not say =)
