Description of problem: Plasma 5 desktop start results black screen after 5.7.3 update


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.7.3


After update to version 5.7.3 Plasma Desktop starts now to black screen.
Only mouse cursor is there. It is possible to start applications using Alt+F2 and switch between them using Alt+Tab. Just no desktop backgroun and no panel.
Process plasmashell is running.

Nothing related in .xsession-errors file...

Well it seems that now kactivitymanagerd package is needed for Plasma Desktop to work - installing that package results an normal Plasma Desktop with background and panel etc...
