System shuts down successfully, but not without error, the noticeable one being /home does not unmount on shutdown. Sddm crashing may be preventing orderly process termination.

Ticket opened on Github for sddm, but it appears to be a plasma issue. In any case, here is the other reference:

Please report this to https://bugs.kde.org, the forum is the wrong place for bug reports.


Running Kubuntu 22.10 with Plasma 5.26.3, Frameworks 5.100.0, Qt 5.15.6, kernel 5.19.0-23 on Ryzen 5 4600H, AMD Renoir, X11
FWIW: it's always useful to state the exact Plasma version (+ distribution) when asking questions, makes it easier to help ...

Not a plasma bug. It is sddm.
