Description Tomáš Jędrzejek 2016-01-06 21:14:37 UTC

When I open Desktop behavior configuration (translated to english) and then Desktop effects, everything is OK and I can see list of the effects. Then when I close the window with Desktop behavior configuration and open again it and going to Desktop effects whole SystemSettings crashes.
It is fully reproducible.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Select Desktop behavior configuratinon/Desktop Effects menu.
2. Close the window.
3. Open Desktop behavior configuratinon window again and select Desktop Effects

Actual Results:  
Crash

Expected Results:  
Do not crash

I can see this bug for long time with KDE 5.

I can reproduce it every time on Archlinux, both with Intel and proprietary Nvidia drivers.

However, I cannot reproduce it on a Tumbleweed virtual machine with Plasma 5.5.2 and KF 5.17.

On Arch I don't have debug symbols for the backtrace, so I'm only going to attach the valgrind log for now.

Weird, the crash does not occur on a fully upgraded Fedora 23 (Intel graphics + plasma 5.5.4 + frameworks 5.18).
Sounds like an Archlinux-specific issue?
