Description Unknown 2015-08-24 19:48:28 UTC
This issue is intermittent, but when I try to open a project via the Open button in toolbar or the File>Open option in the menu, Kdenlive will freeze, forcing me to close it via xkill command.

Running from Konsole produces this before freezing: 
kf5.kservice.sycoca: Trying to open ksycoca from "/home/travlr/.cache/ksycoca5"



Reproducible: Sometimes

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Kdenlive
2. Click the "Open" icon button, or go to File>Open

Actual Results:  
Kdenlive freezes, with the only option to force close the program.

Expected Results:  
The "Open" dialog box to come up to open my Kdenlive projects.

Running Kdenlive 15.08 on Kubuntu 15.04 x64 w/ KDE Plasma 5.3.2 via backports PPA.
