Hi !

Related to this bug https://bugs.mageia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22840 I uninstalled kwalletmanager, I didn't saw, but it also removed plasma-desktop and maybe plasma-desktop-handbook.

When I reinstalled kwallet, it didn't reinstalled kwalletmanager, kwalletmanager-handbook, plasma-desktop, plasma-desktop-handbook.

When I reboot, I had no plasma anymore, and manage with "konsole". With drakconf, I saw that :

kwalletmanager depends ONLY on
  kwalletmanager-handbook

kwalletmanager-handbook depends ONLY on
  kwalletmanager

plasma-desktop depends on
  kwalletmanager
  or kwalletmanager-handbook
  or both

plasma-desktop-handbook depends on
  nothing previously mentionned.

Maybe other dependencies that is already installed. But on my opinion, it should be the opposite, all must depend on plasma-desktop.

I put this bug as major, because it is really hard to find what was removed (because no removed-packages-log) and when it removes plasma-desktop only for a "simple" software should not happend. Feel free to put the severity lower.

i won't remove kwallet* from requires on plasma-desktop.

They are needed for a better user experience.
