Bug#926791: plasmashell: doesn't restart upon crashing
Package: plasma-workspace
Version: 4:5.14.5.1-1
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
After plasmashell crashes it doesn't restart automatically, being necessary to
restart it manually in a terminal. This is quite frustrating and may be
difficult and off-putting for users. I think it restarted automatically in
Debian 9, but I don't remember it crashing so much (for me on Debian 10 it
typically crashes when I access grouped windows in the taskbar, such as when
there are too many windows open).
Thus I suggest, if possible, to add a service that detects if plasmashell is
supposed to be running and then restarts it.
Thank you.
