Tracer is problematic, e.g. I find it will suggest restarting a session because of several stale processes, but on logging out and trying it again as root from a console it will find a whole bunch of other stuff, often related to systemd, that somehow it hadn't noticed before. I posted something on this on the Fedora Users list (Feb 22) but finding it in the new list archive system is too much work. poc _______________________________________________ kde mailing list kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/kde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
