Hello nix-dev, As the KDE 5 maintainer, I am issuing a warning that the KDE 5 startup sequence is broken in Nixpkgs master and probably in the unstable channel, too. If you are a KDE 5 user, I recommend that you use with NixOS 16.03 for now. I haven't updated the KDE packages since the 16.03 release yet, so this is not a big step backward.
I'm issuing this notice because it may be several weeks before I am able to devote any significant time to debugging this issue. I'm sorry for the delay. If anyone is interested in pursuing this on their own: I have determined that the problem is caused by the NIX_PROFILES environment variable being unset at some point during startup. NIX_PROFILES must be set correctly for KDE to detect its various plugins and runtime dependencies.
