I installed F18 last week, and now when I log in, I get a pop up message

So this is very strange, normally it should be asking for some specific
script engine, like "python script engine" or "ruby script engine". Just
asking for "script engine" looks broken to me, and it's no big surprise that
it isn't finding it. (The empty string is not a valid scripting language.
;-) )
The only other strange thing that I observe that might possibly be
connected is that when I try to start yumex, it fails with a message
YUM: The value for the SHELL variable was not found the /etc/shells file
This may or may not be related.
It's possible (but not necessarily the case) that both problems are symptoms
of a more profound issue.

I haven't found a solution to the Plasma Resources problem yet, but the
yumex problem was because sudo activates /usr/bin/bash as the shell,
while /etc/shells had /bin/bash. I added /usr/bin/bash and yumex works
fine. As far as I can tell, I am not missing any plasma resource
(unless there is a resource for saving special window settings).
