[DO NOT MERGE] Disable KDE drkonqi coredump handling#49
Open
Conversation
The drkonqi-coredump-launcher.socket has UpheldBy=sockets.target which causes systemd to retry it for users where ConditionUser=!@System fails (sddm, flipctl), flooding journal with thousands of messages per minute. Mask the full set of drkonqi coredump units to disable the feature entirely; coredumps are still captured by systemd-coredump.

I think it's easier to just override the unit file for drkonqi-coredump to remove the filter on !@System. It's probably not the best long term fix, but neither is removing the service altogether.
It would be great to better understand the rationale for why this condition was introduced in the first place though.
