Description yamiyukisenpai 2021-05-04 04:09:23 UTC 
SUMMARY
I'm not exactly sure how to describe this, but I can't seem launch any software unless I launch via Krunner or terminal using its terminal command, (i.e. Plasma System Monitor with `plasma-systemmonitor`, or Konsole with `konsole`).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Login with Plasma Wayland 

OBSERVED RESULT
After logging in, I need to enter my password in KDE Wallet, along with running `plasmashell --replace` in order for the desktop to show up.
The panel's icons are showing "?", and they don't respond when I click it.

EXPECTED RESULT
The desktop should be able to look and act like in X11 session.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition
KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.80
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.82.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.8.0-50-generic (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i7-4510U CPU @ 2.00GHz
Memory: 15.5 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mesa DRI Intel® HD Graphics 4400

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Everything works fine with X11, though, so I'm not sure what's happening.  I know with Unstable I shouldn't expect any stability, but I'd like to recover some functionality at least.

That's an extremely unusual set of symptoms. :/
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2021-05-05 16:27:42 UTC 
Please attach the log in ~/.local/share/sddm/wayland-session.log
Comment 3 yamiyukisenpai 2021-05-07 02:52:01 UTC 
It's empty

Do I need to login with Wayland first to do it?
Comment 4 yamiyukisenpai 2021-05-07 03:23:28 UTC 
I think Plasama Wayland session was uninstalled.

I noticed that this line appeared at the end of `pkcon update`:

```
Fatal error: Error while installing package: trying to overwrite '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt5/plugins/kcm_formats.so', which is also in package plasma-desktop 4
```

I ran `apt install -f` and found out that plasma-workspace and plasma-workspace-wayland are 2 of the packages that will be installed.

Good thing I caught that because I was about to go to bed.  I'll update this once I try it out again.
