            Bug ID: 425272
           Summary: install-sessions.sh should set up dbus/polkit/kauth
                    stuff for your built-from-source Plasma desktop
           Product: plasmashell
           Version: master
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: k...@davidedmundson.co.uk
          Reporter: n...@kde.org
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: 1.0

Right now install-sessions.sh just makes your built-from-source plasma desktop
session show up in SDDM, which is already amazing. However it could do more.
Right now we have some ugly documentation about how to set up DBus/PolKit/Kauth
stuff properly: https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development#Plasma

This documentation doesn't actually seem to be correct and anecdotally, many
KDE developers (myself included) appear to to have trouble getting it to work.

install-sessions should also do whatever is needed to get DBus, PolKit, and
Kauth stuff working too. Then that stuff is transformed from a pain point into
an effortless non-issue, just like it did for making your built-from-source
Plasma desktop to appear in SDDM.
