Bug ID: 443215
Summary: GDK_SCALE and GDK_DPI_SCALE are hard coded and
overwrite user config
Product: plasmashell
Version: master
Platform: Archlinux Packages
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
Reporter: cruise....@gmail.com
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
In plasma wayland, GDK_SCALE and GDK_DPI_SCALE cannot be configured with
".pam_environment", ".profile", ".config/plasma-workspace/env", etc.
The variables are set to 1 in startplasma-wayland, seemingly after loading user
config.
Code is here:
https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/blob/e6cab5d96f7b51a5cf4be3d93a7e2d4fee1cddae/startkde/startplasma-wayland.cpp#L67
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Write `export GDK_SCALE=2` to `.profile` and
`.config/plasma-workspace/env/dpi.sh`.
2. Reboot.
3. Run printenv.
OBSERVED RESULT
`GDK_SCALE` is 1.
EXPECTED RESULT
`GDK_SCALE` is expected to be 2.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
plasma-workspace 5.22.5, packaged by Arch Linux.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I edited startplasma-wayland bin file, changed string `GDK_SCALE` to
`XXX_SCALE`. Now `GDK_SCALE` can be configured with `.pam_environment` as
expected.
