Title:
If Kubuntu installation fails, Plasma crashes when attempting to
launch once Calamares quits
Status in calamares package in Ubuntu:
Fix Released
Bug description:
OS: Kubuntu Noble.
Hardware: Raw QEMU VM.
Attempt to install Kubuntu using Calamares. It will fail due to
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/calamares/+bug/2054795.
After installation failure however, Plasma will attempt to launch, and
then crash, possibly multiple times.
This is because Calamares is causing /home/kubuntu/.cache to be owned
by root. This trips up Plasma and causes it to crash.
The solution is to `chown -R 1000:1000 /home/kubuntu/.cache`
immediately after kubuntu-installer-prompt exits in
/usr/libexec/start-kubuntu-live-env. This fixes the ownership of the
directory before Plasma starts. I've tested this in a VM and it works.
