Dear maintainer,

I only removed leftovers of packages that had already been removed by a dist-upgrade. After that, sddm would not give me a login prompt so I was unable to log into KDE the normal way.
I had to do 'systemctl stop sddm.service', as root.
Then 'startx startkde' as user to access the desktop, this bypassing sddm.
I checked the above mentioned packages and they are installed and the latest version in stretch. In order to log into desktop the normal way I installed kdm and set is as default.

To help troubleshooting I will attach some traces I collected from error logs.
