  Failed units:

as the title says I am unable to log out of my user.

Clicking log off after pressing ctrl+alt+delete or the arrow button in the start menu brings a prompt asking if I want to log out.

If I hit yes nothing happens

haven’t been able to find anything about this in the kde bug tracker.

I also tried resseting my sddm settings to default with no luck

EDIT: created a new user and rebooted to I can get to the login screen and log into that user and was able to log out from that user. that led me to stoping every user systems service I have on my main user and found it it was because of this GitHub - dnut/clipboard-sync: Synchronizes the clipboard across multiple X11 and wayland instances running on the same machine.

apparently, from some reason this prevents plasma from logging out

This doesn’t seem necessary anymore. I used it to work around copy-and-paste not working correctly on the Rustdesktop remote controller computer and the host. I haven’t tested it, but it seems this should no longer be needed.

Sorry for not marking the issue resolved. I wanted to confirm this, but I haven’t had the time. Anyway, this was causing Plasma not to log out, and since I don’t really use this anymore (and it has other bugs), I just gutted it.

If anyone else can’t log out of plasma starting around plasma 6, now you know what may potentially be the culprit.
