When installing Plasma/KDE, user-manager and accountsservice are not installed, therefore the user manager in settings does not work

vaartis commented 5 years ago

Issue description

After installing Plasma, i found out that i could not change user settings, because the user manager was not installed, and after installing it, it did not work, because the accountsservice that it needs seems to not be it's dependency.

Steps to reproduce

services.xserver.desktopManager.plasma5.enable = true;

Then, when one tries to open user manager from system settings, it says the desktop file "doesn't specify a library" Hower, after installing user-manager and accountsservice, it works.

Comment

I tried nixos-rebuild and also nix-env to install the aforementioned packages but User Manager does not show up in the Plasma5 System Settings/Account Details

nix-env -q accountsservice-0.6.50 user-manager-5.13.4

nix-channel --list nixos https://nixos.org/channels/nixos-18.09
