Bug 20022

My (equally wrong) desktop file here has:

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root    32 okt 24 19:33 desktop*

The time stamp is from during the traditional install that I later updated to cauldron.

There were no packages pushed at that time on October 24.

Also, neither Sophie nor dnf repoquery tell me where that file comes from:
[root@localhost marja]# LANGUAGE=C dnf repoquery -f /etc/sysconfig/desktop
Last metadata expiration check: 0:00:27 ago on Sun Dec 25 11:36:03 2016 CET.
[root@localhost marja]# 

So I assume Bit Twister's  /etc/sysconfig/desktop  was written during his "6sta2" network install.

Apparently netinstall isos do more than only pulling in stage2, I can't believe stage2 decides what the content of that desktop file should be.

CC'ing KDE team and Thierry, and assigning to the isobuilders for now (even if I didn't find a "KDE" string in bcd, either :-/)

@ Bit Twister

If you didn't change that file: Is the time stamp of that file from during install for you, too?
If so, can you please attach /root/drakx/report.bug.xz ?
If not, and if you did not manually change it, then please attach the journalctl log from when the time stamp changed.

However, there is still KDE in perl-install/any.pm sub autologin

Yup, rpm does not show who owns the file. I had rpm extract all the package scripts and none of the 357 rpms with scripts changes any values.
initscripts changed format but not values.

Makes you wonder about ~/.desktop files.

Yes that is what happened.

Guessing stage2 did not make the decision. I had a three week, or so, old network install which had DISPLAYMANAGER=sddm only. After some k* update it was converted to 
DISPLAYMANAGER=kdm
DESKTOP=KDE4

Sorry. All requested information journal/log dumps are wiped as my day_one_install, new_install, install_changes script run.
My scripts checks logs for _fault_words='bad rpm|fail|Broken pipe|error|mismatch|missing|invalid|problem|unsatisfied|warning|conflicts|: line '

and nothing of real interest showed up that has not already been reported.

As for /etc/sysconfig/desktop's date, I have been modifying it to see it affects getting pulseaudio to run as a system daemon. No luck so far.

Sorry, my mistake. Brain gas. Wrote my own confusion.
echo DISPLAYMANAGER=$DISPLAYMANAGER DESKTOP=$DESKTOP  :(

Problem still exists. Some app overwrote
DISPLAYMANAGER=sddm
with
DISPLAYMANAGER=kdm
DESKTOP=KDE4
