Description Neal Gompa 2021-01-22 17:17:40 UTC 
SUMMARY
When trying to build plasma-workspace with systemd-user session support instead of classic session handling by passing "-DPLASMA_SYSTEMD_BOOT:BOOL=ON" to CMake, it reports that the option is unhandled.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Download plasma-workspace 5.20.90
2. Run cmake with "-DPLASMA_SYSTEMD_BOOT:BOOL=ON"

OBSERVED RESULT
CMake spits out the following output:

CMake Warning:
  Manually-specified variables were not used by the project:
    PLASMA_SYSTEMD_BOOT


EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma is built with systemd user sessions instead of classic ones.

(available in About System)

Urgh, will fix.
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2021-01-27 10:43:34 UTC 
The leftover cmake option was removed, there is a runtime config option which we discussed on IRC
