Kubuntu should now be fully ready for this. In fact, on latest Questing daily ISO we no longer install the Plasma X11 session by default. It can be installed for users who want it via the package plasma-session-x11.
Rationale is that it is highly improbable that we can support the X11 session in 26.04 LTS (or now even), so Like Ubuntu desktop it is probably better to rip off this sticking plaster in 25.10 and concentrate on wayland with less distraction. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-meta in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/2114015 Title: Move xorg dependency from desktop-common to all the desktop flavor seeds instead Status in kubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in kwin package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in lubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: New Status in magpie package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in plasma-workspace package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in ubuntu-budgie-meta package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in ubuntu-mate-meta package in Ubuntu: New Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Triaged Status in ubuntucinnamon-meta package in Ubuntu: New Status in ubuntukylin-meta package in Ubuntu: New Status in ubuntustudio-meta package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in xubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: There was an announcement [1] this week that Ubuntu Desktop 25.10 will no longer include the Xorg session. Ubuntu Desktop no longer needs xserver-xorg in the default install and is working on removing it there. The 'xorg' metapackage has a hard dependency on xserver-xorg. 'xorg' is included in desktop-common. Therefore, we need 'xorg' to be removed from desktop-common and individually added to all the other Ubuntu desktop flavor seeds. I believe xorg installs unnecessary components and you might want to pick and choose pieces instead. For instance, I don't think most desktops need x11-apps or xcursor-themes. You will need xserver-xorg if you install a session that uses xorg. If you also include a Wayland session, you might want to split the Xorg session to a separate binary package like Ubuntu Desktop 25.04 did with ubuntu-session-xsession to allow people to try uninstalling that package to use only the Wayland session.
