Bug ID: 499473
Summary: KDE shows a non-actionable "XWayland has crashed"
notification, despite no evidence that it did
Classification: Plasma
Product: kwin
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general

screenshot of the useless notification
SUMMARY
In Fedora Rawhide, KDE sometimes shows a notification from KWin that says
"XWayland has crashed". That's all it says. Clicking the notification does
nothing. drkonqi shows no crashes. There is no trace of XWayland, or anything
else, crashing in the system journal.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Boot a fresh Fedora Rawhide KDE live image or installed system (maybe a few
times - this doesn't happen every boot). Our openQA test system sees this
regularly, and I can reproduce in a local virt-manager VM
2. Open Notifications
3. See useless "XWayland has crashed" notification
OBSERVED RESULT
A notification which appears to be lying, and is unactionable
EXPECTED RESULT
No such useless notification
