You need the debug packages from your distribution to get a better backtrace, see the link above and ask your distribution forum. It would help us identifying the bug, thanks in advance!

*** Bug 165420 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
This is a binary compatibility issue and there was already a report somewhere that deals with it. You can fix it by just updating all packages (or at least kdeplasmoid and kdebase) to 4.0.84. Now the question is, don't we have a mechanism like increasing somewhere a version to prevent such problems in the future?! iirc *.desktop-files already do provide some kind of "version" key-value pairs, or?!
When this crash happened, I had all the plasma stuff updated to 4.0.84 but I was missing the package kdeplasmoïd. I solved this problem by desinstalling all the plasma applet. Installation of kdeplasmoïd 4.0.84 (and all dependencies) is definitely solving this problem. I apologise for this false bug report. regards, Yoann
No problem, thanks for having followed up! Closing, Anne-Marie
