"It doesn't work!!!" was pretty much all I have. A G+ post [1] and a flurry of incoming people on IRC complaining of a black screen on login. Why it was broken didn't really matter as I just wanted to stop distros rolling 5.3 into their stable repos ASAP. Apparently users get: Warning: corona package invalid Invalid home screen package I /believe/ it's a3932843386a29faa3c62bf2934a173a3781d56c [2] in plasma-framework that's causing the issue. There was a plasma package structure that was hardcoded, this was moved into a plugin in Plasma Workspaces 5.1. I'm currently rebuilding this combo of packages into a clean prefix so I can prove it is this. I'll report back when I've confirmed this and then we can work out how we proceed.
