From 393b359f13f1685c1a1d4bae4f89fa0ead726ce5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Matthew Bauer Date: Thu, 7 Mar 2019 14:07:08 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] plasma: handle ksycoca5 better - 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). --- .../services/x11/desktop-managers/plasma5.nix | 24 ++++++++++++++++++- .../plasma-workspace/plasma-workspace.patch | 22 +++++++++++++++-- 2 files changed, 43 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/nixos/modules/services/x11/desktop-managers/plasma5.nix b/nixos/modules/services/x11/desktop-managers/plasma5.nix index ace9dd5321be..e5be9bf27692 100644 --- a/nixos/modules/services/x11/desktop-managers/plasma5.nix +++ b/nixos/modules/services/x11/desktop-managers/plasma5.nix @@ -226,7 +226,29 @@ in security.pam.services.slim.enableKwallet = true; # Update the start menu for each user that is currently logged in - system.userActivationScripts.plasmaSetup = "${pkgs.libsForQt5.kservice}/bin/kbuildsycoca5"; + system.userActivationScripts.plasmaSetup = '' + # The KDE icon cache is supposed to update itself + # automatically, but it uses the timestamp on the icon + # theme directory as a trigger.
