[SOLVED] KDE Applications 15.08: Desktop kio slave

Hi guys,

since the update to KDE Applications 15.08 I am missing the desktop kio plugin that lets me run applications from the Desktop folder in my home directory through the Folder View plasmoid. The plasmoid that was supposed to display the contents of the Desktop folder is empty and there was an error message about the desktop kio slave plugin not being found before I restarted my KDE session.

I suppose the plugin should have been available at /usr/lib/qt/plugins/kf5/kio/ but it's obviously not there. I have both kio and kio-extras packages installed.

Has something changed in between versions 15.04 and 15.08 of KDE Apps?

Thanks for any insight.

It was moved from kio-extras to plasma-workspace. Will be back in plasma 5.4 (to be released today)
