[Bug 1576500] Re: Plasma fails to load: "all shell packages missing"

[jklasdf]

I don't think you actually have the same problem as us. See the picture
attached to the bug report...if alt-f2 is working and krunner doesn't
crash you probably have a different problem. I'd recommend opening a
separate bug report with just your symptoms.

If you want to check if your problem is being caused by $XDG_DATA_DIRS,
you can temporarily set $XDG_DATA_DIRS (all on one line):

XDG_DATA_DIRS="/usr/share" plasmashell

The symlink thing was a temporary workaround, I wouldn't actually
recommend it. You can check that it's set properly by doing ls -l
~/.local/share/plasma
