I would also be happy if we just commited the UIDs/GIDs part so that we have something fixed for the future..

Builds on 10.3 against current HEAD of ports tree; haven't actually tried it yet, though.

Works fine in combination with KDE4, but needs the remaining changes that have been pushed to Area51 plasma5/ to be added, too.

This revision now requires changes to proceed.Aug 6 2017, 8:41 PM

GIDs
162 ↗	(On Diff #30856)	Can you rebase the patch? This uid/gid has been taken.
x11/sddm/Makefile
21 ↗	(On Diff #30856)	It'd be good to explain why.

x11/sddm/Makefile
21 ↗	(On Diff #30856)	I don't know enough PAM to write an OpenPAM compatible pam file to be used. So I opted to use the passwd-based backend -- the two backends are exclusive.

Assuming the pending changes that Ade mentioned have been incorporated, shipit!

x11/sddm/Makefile
21 ↗	(On Diff #30856)	Explaining that we're disabling PAM because the code isn't compatible with OpenPAM, even if you don't know how/why, already helps.

Add the session files for

kde4 (in x11/kde4-workspace -- makes more sense than to ship it with sddm)
xinitrc

and a launch script for the latter.

lgtm. i've been using this sddm to log into my kde4 desktop on 10.3 for a while, and it seems to support all the bits that are needed, except shutdown from inside the kde4 session (you can logout, and then shutdown from the sddm login screen, though).
