Package: plasma-workspace Version: 4:6.7.2-4 I'm running xfce4, but because I might want to change some day I also have KDE and Gnome installed. Lately, I've noticed that when plasma-workspace is updated, it will start a plasma session on top of the xfce4 session and mess up my icon theme. This has happened in the two most recent plasma-workspace updates I've done. That should mean it happened in 4:6.7.2-3, but possibly not in 4:6.7.2-2? I have not verified that, though. I can also reproduce that by reconfiguring the package. The output from this is probably not helpful, since every line is about how it doesn't start something: # dpkg-reconfigure plasma-workspace plasma-baloorunner.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-core.target is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-gmenudbusmenuproxy.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-kcminit-phase1.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-krunner.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-ksplash.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-restoresession.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-startupsound.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-workspace-wayland.target is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-workspace-x11.target is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-workspace.target is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. plasma-xembedsniproxy.service is a disabled or a static unit not running, not starting it. Please let me know what additional information you need. Regards, Torbjörn Andersson
