[plasma-x11-session] Plasma X11 auto-login is broken as of 6.4.0

Description:

After Plasma's XSession file got renamed from plasmax11.desktop to plasma-x11.desktop (commit), SDDM is now unable to auto-login into a Plasma X11 session, unless you manually edit /etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf and update the [Autologin] section to:

diff --git a/etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf b/etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf
index 15719d5..6a68919 100644
--- a/etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf
+++ b/etc/sddm.conf.d/kde_settings.conf
@@ -1,6 +1,6 @@
 [Autologin]
 Relogin=false
-Session=plasmax11
+Session=plasma-x11
 User=foo

 [General]

I'd suggest reverting to the old name. Thanks!

Additional info:

  • package version(s): plasma-x11-session 6.4.0-3
  • config and/or log files: N/A
  • link to upstream bug report, if any: N/A
