also reported on
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=365989
the root of the problem then it seems that in some cases
kactivitymanagerd doesn't start correct ly or crashes: that's the
first thing we should make sure never, ever happens, because in that
case, i have no idea how to guarantee how a plasmashell session could
ever start correctly, the fact that this was probably happening since
a long time but masked, is also quite worrying.

I was surprised plasma-mobile was without kamd, and yes, the fact that
before it appeared to be "working", it was ctually wrong
