Hello Team Debian. I am the System Admin of a small network in which we use a modified version of Sid (Sky1) on a CiX 8180 RADXA Orion O6. By default Sky1 uses GNOME but I prefer the KDE Plasma Enviroment. However during the course of changing Desktop Enviroments, i made a typo and instead of installing the "kde-desktop" package i added "plasma-desktop" and once installed this package created a login "plasma-setup" with a password unknown to me. I have tried deluser and userdel, i have tried to change passwd, but neither of these worked. its user 1100 and its home directory /run/plasma-setup doesnt appear to exist. i am slightly concerned that this could create a backdoor into my system which contains sensitive ip information. I am hoping that your team might be able to help me resolve this issue. thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Joshua McGoldrick PSYAI LLC
