Hi, I am Patrick, a maintainer of Whonix, which Whonix is a Linux derivative with at least several thousand users, that by default is using Debian with Debian KDE packages. Is it okay if I ask a few questions on how to pre-configure KDE as a Linux distribution?
Are you aware of any example (Debian) packages that pre-configure plasma 5? These could help me to figure out the correct file locations and environment variables. In KDE 4, essentially the following worked. [1] /usr/share/whonix-gw-kde-desktop-conf/share/apps/plasma-desktop/init/00-defaultLayout.js [2] /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50whonix-gw-kde-desktop-conf: export KDEDIRS=/usr/share/whonix-gw-kde-desktop-conf/:$KDEDIRS I figured out how to make a kde settings package work with KDE 5. Here is an example. [3] [4] /etc/X11/Xsession.d/50kde-sounds-off if [ -z "$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS" ]; then XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg fi export XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/usr/share/kde-sounds-off/:$XDG_CONFIG_DIRS [5] /usr/share/kde-sounds-off/knotifyrc But editing default plasmoids / plasma changes are a bit different? For example, how could one enable kde systray by default? The file that needs to be ultimately influenced is /home/user/.config/plasma-org.kde.plasma.desktop-appletsrc. I haven't found any documentation on kde.org on how to do that with KDE5. Please advice.
