For in NixOS it is beneficial if both plasma5 and pam use the same Qt5
version. Because the plasma5 desktop may use a different version as the
default Qt5 version, we introduce plasma5Packages.
This option is not documented anywhere and while it may be set
in configuration.nix to enable integration, having it on by
default when using both plasma and firefox is a great convenience;
just like all other desktop environments do it already.
Regression introduced by 053b05d14d.
The commit in question essentially removed the "with pkgs;" from the
scope around the various packages added to environment.systemPackages.
Since services.colord.enable and services.xserver.wacom.enable are false
by default, the change above didn't directly result in an evaluation
error.
Tested evaluation before and after this change via:
for cfg in hardware.bluetooth.enable \
networking.networkmanager.enable \
hardware.pulseaudio.enable \
powerManagement.enable \
services.colord.enable \
services.samba.enable \
services.xserver.wacom.enable; do
nix-instantiate --eval nixos --arg configuration '{
services.xserver.desktopManager.plasma5.enable = true;
'"$cfg"' = true;
}' -A config.environment.systemPackages > /dev/null
done

A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
The SLIM project is abandoned and their last release was in 2013.
Because of this it poses a security risk to systems, no one is working
on it or picked up maintenance. It also lacks compatibility with systemd
and logind sessions. For users, there liikely isn't anything like slim
that's as lightweight in terms of dependencies.
When bluetooth is enabled, we install bluedevil, but
its applet cannot work without the qml components in
bluez-qt.
Superseedes #65440 that failed to address the issue.
Introduce a new .plasma5.phononBackend option. Default value
"gstreamer" installs the same packages as before. "vlc" installs
only the vlc phonon backend.
- Remove xdg-desktop-menu-dummy.menu kbuildsycoca5. Not sure why we
need it but it is a pretty big failure if it exists.
See issue #56176.
- plasma: clear ksycoca cache before building
This is needed to pick up on software removed since the last cache
update. Otherwise it hangs around as zombies forever (or until the
cache is cleared).
- Add the above + the icon cache cleanup to plasmaSetup
This will be run for the logged in user on each nixos-rebuild.
Unfortunately this only works if you are managing software through
nixos-rebuild (nix-env users need to run this manually, otherwise
log out and log back in).
