For in NixOS it is beneficial if both plasma5 and pam use the same Qt5
version. Because the plasma5 desktop may use a different version as the
default Qt5 version, we introduce plasma5Packages.
>From https://apps.kde.org/:
Elisa is a simple KDE music player (with builtin internet radio support),
Okular is a universal KDE document viewer (can fill PDF forms),
Gwenview is a fast and easy to use KDE image viewer.
All three are missing in the default installation KDE installation, e.g.
services.xserver = {
displayManager.sddm.enable = true;
desktopManager.plasma5.enable = true;
};
which provides no alternatives, hence requiring them whilst being
offline is unfortunate, so install them by default.
This option is not documented anywhere and while it may be set
in configuration.nix to enable integration, having it on by
default when using both plasma and firefox is a great convenience;
just like all other desktop environments do it already.
Regression introduced by 053b05d14d.
The commit in question essentially removed the "with pkgs;" from the
scope around the various packages added to environment.systemPackages.
Since services.colord.enable and services.xserver.wacom.enable are false
by default, the change above didn't directly result in an evaluation
error.
Tested evaluation before and after this change via:
for cfg in hardware.bluetooth.enable \
networking.networkmanager.enable \
hardware.pulseaudio.enable \
powerManagement.enable \
services.colord.enable \
services.samba.enable \
services.xserver.wacom.enable; do
nix-instantiate --eval nixos --arg configuration '{
services.xserver.desktopManager.plasma5.enable = true;
'"$cfg"' = true;
}' -A config.environment.systemPackages > /dev/null
done

A centralized list for these renames is not good because:
- It breaks disabledModules for modules that have a rename defined
- Adding/removing renames for a module means having to find them in the
central file
- Merge conflicts due to multiple people editing the central file
The SLIM project is abandoned and their last release was in 2013.
Because of this it poses a security risk to systems, no one is working
on it or picked up maintenance. It also lacks compatibility with systemd
and logind sessions. For users, there liikely isn't anything like slim
that's as lightweight in terms of dependencies.
When bluetooth is enabled, we install bluedevil, but
its applet cannot work without the qml components in
bluez-qt.
Superseedes #65440 that failed to address the issue.
Introduce a new .plasma5.phononBackend option. Default value
"gstreamer" installs the same packages as before. "vlc" installs
only the vlc phonon backend.
