I'm trying to fix this longstanding bug where there are dangling user
processes after the desktop session exists:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=359651
This is reproducible every time on multiple distributions and KDE
versions. It also causes subsequent logins to fail or behave
surprisingly due to the presence of extraneous dbus services,
pulseaudio clients, etc.
I looked into plasma-workspace/startkde, and there's no hint of it
starting "systemd --user" directly. There's this cli tool called
"kde-systemd-start-condition" (which appears to be unused), and a few
other mentions of logind and systemd, but nothing really relevant.
Am I looking in the wrong place?
Hmm, well, maybe sddm was the right place to look. I see various places
where sddm talks about the session with the login1 dbus service:
https://github.com/sddm/sddm/blob/develop/src/daemon/Display.cpp
Yet, I can't spot the exact place where the session is created. I guess
the fix for this bug might involve sending a KillSession message after
startplasma-x11 or startplasma-wayland has exited. Maybe from
HelperApp::sessionFinished?
