[Bug 1531766] Re: krunner dies when second monitor is attached, before startup of machine

[Flames_in_Paradise]

Please don't feel refused, but I really don't think this has to do with
packaging. Especially then you could add yourself to the mentioned bug-
report on KDE.

For two reasons:
- draw more attention on this bug
- given the opportunity you can grant valuable debug information, it may help to resolve it with faster speed.

Hence I'm not in the position to justify about the priorities that
developers have, having said so I'm not even aware if it will be fixed
in a newer version of Kubuntu (aka Development-Release 16.04). And I've
definetly justified my expectations in regards to getting fixes in STS-
releases with a lifecycle of just 9 month. Whereas I would think this
needed a mentioning in Release-Notes, as this should not simply be
bypassed and left aside since evermore users have a multi-monitor setuo-
environment - though the dev doesn't. Maybe we should poke him that this
is even possible within a testing environment VirtualBox? :-)

It's also an unreveilled secret (but true) that the underlying Qt-
Version has great influence on this. So personally I'm looking for the
landing of Qt-5.6 in Xenial 16.04. If needed I can pass on more
information on this. Wily has just disqualiyfied at this early stage of
swapping from KDE4 to KDE5 with multi-monitor setup env. But it doesn't
exlude testing & bug-reporting.

I could not dare to have the my laptop in the Docking-Station in an
unreliable condition - so I stayed there with 14.04. It's not perfect
but sufficient. And since it's older HW I need to run it in OpenGLES.
LTS-Versions are ALWAYS the one+only recommondation for production-
environment.

After years of being a Kubuntu-USER (with all ups & downs), I've come to
the conclusion that the greatest efforts are achieved if U take part in
early testing-LTS+1. If possible, things can be patched backwards or
SRU-ed then. -> (bug #1531499 - Backport request SDDM 0.13 (needs some
more sorting out b4fore it can happen) This seems to be the package in
question, since thats the stage where it happens, for my thinking.

Having written quite more than what belongs in a bug-report  - since I
felt it's fair to share on certain items of "frustration" in bug-reports
too  -  Coming to a conclusion : Dev' are not the most communicative
people - solutions maybe having background activities -which are not
visible - (not even communicated) AND they have to "household" their
level of energy like anybody else - apart from the fact that we all put
in a certain amount of leisure-time to keep the FOSS - ideals running.
