Is there any reason why you didn't just follow the instructions located as comments in  /lib/systemd/system/rc-local.service ?  Note the mention of "executable" in the comments.

FWIW, I've found that redirecting stderr to a file for each command can help diagnose issues.  Also, adding an "echo" with a redirect to a file can let you know if a command is being run that you're expecting to be run.

So, you turned off the default sddm in F21 and switched back to kdm?
