the plasma-workspace-wayland package adds a "Plasma

The first problem seems to be that /usr/bin/startplasmacompositor couldn't
find qdbus, probably because the qt5 binary is installed as
/usr/bin/qdbus-qt5. After fixing this with a temporary symlink hack, the
wayland session still fails to start:
Dec 18 17:48:19 giskard /usr/libexec/gdm-wayland-session[14439]:
startplasmacompositor: Could not start D-Bus. Can you call qdbus? Dec 18
17:48:19 giskard /usr/libexec/gdm-wayland-session[14439]:
startplasmacompositor: Starting up...
Was anyone able to get to a working Wayland session on Fedora 27? If so,
how?
As a quick workaround, you can try setting your local PATH to include
/usr/lib64/qt5/bin. But the shipped /usr/bin/startplasmacompositor ought to
be patched to run qdbus-qt5 instead of just qdbus.
