REVISION SUMMARY SDDM as of 0.18.1 appends " (Wayland)" to the Name of any session file it finds in wayland-sessions dir, and Plasma is relying on that behaviour to distinguish between its X11 and Wayland sessions. This leads to duplicate "Plasma" entries on any other DM not applying the same hack, e.g. lightdm, and users are lost without downstream patching. Instead of waiting for which of (SDDM, Plasma) is doing something about it first, renaming X11 session to "Plasma (X11)" appears to be the most elegant solution out of the deadlock. SDDM can be fixed any time later.
