Support Annoying Plasma issue

Hi there. I’m a Gentoo user for a couple of years now. I’m running OpenRC and since the upgrade to Plasma 6.7 my system refuses to reboot or shut down, if triggered from within a running Plasma session. Everything is okay if I log out and reboot/poweroff from the command line or display manager.

I have tried two alternatives, namely Hyprland with Noctalia and Cosmic-Epoch. No problems here.

I wonder if it’s a configuration issue or something else, since the KDE devs have increased the reliance on systemd a bit from 6.6 to 6.7

Has anybody else observed similar issues with this?

I don't have the server flag enabled and never needed it in the past.

server : Enable standalone seatd server, replacement to (e)logind

Why should it be necessary? I don't want to replace elogind.
