I did some more digging and I now believe that I'm facing a problem that's related to me running wayland. https://github.com/KDE/kwindowsystem/blob/05f5379c24a59e1ded2f12a6fd09946617abd0ac/src/kkeyserver.h#L29 KKeyServer has a compile-time switch for it's backend. I guess this needs to be converted to a runtime switch similar to what was done here https://github.com/KDE/kguiaddons/commit/0fe2990dbad992a4925a7b7bee09b1cdfbe5a7a7#diff-928c366533ef47aba95b92e8767bc8ff REPOSITORY R133 KScreenLocker REVISION DETAIL https://phabricator.kde.org/D22748 To: mblumenstingl, broulik Cc: plasma-devel, LeGast00n, jraleigh, fbampaloukas, GB_2, ragreen, Pitel, ZrenBot, himcesjf, lesliezhai, ali-mohamed, jensreuterberg, abetts, sebas, apol, mart
