Description nucleo 2023-09-23 09:31:24 UTC

plasma-workspace-5.27.8-2.fc40 installs xdg-desktop-portal-kde as dependency.

Please, make xdg-desktop-portal-kde as weak dependency what makes it possible not to use this feature if it not needed.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Neal Gompa 2023-09-25 18:51:03 UTC

It is a mandatory dependency for plasma-workspace-wayland. Things don't function correctly without it.

Comment 2 nucleo 2023-09-25 19:27:35 UTC

I use X11 session but plasma-workspace-wayland and xdg-desktop-portal-kde can't be removed.

Comment 3 nucleo 2023-09-25 19:38:01 UTC

Removing plasma-workspace-wayland also removes plasma-desktop plasma-workspace

Comment 4 Neal Gompa 2023-09-25 20:03:01 UTC

Yes, Plasma Wayland is the primary supported experience for Fedora KDE. It's been that way since Fedora 34.

Comment 5 nucleo 2023-09-25 20:55:57 UTC

plasma-workspace-wayland сan be pre-installed by default.
But since the plasma-workspace-x11 package is also available it should be possible to switch to X11 session with removing plasma-workspace-wayland and unused its dependencies.
