Description Tony 2020-06-18 18:11:19 UTC
Application: plasmashell (5.19.80)

Qt Version: 5.15.0
Frameworks Version: 5.72.0
Operating System: Linux 5.7.1-1-default x86_64
Windowing system: Wayland
Distribution: "openSUSE Tumbleweed"

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Just logged into a new session.

- Unusual behavior I noticed:
There was no wallpaper black background(i think is another bug where plasma its not saving some settings) and part of the screen was flashing, like wanting to render something but it can't.

The crash can be reproduced sometimes.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Plasma (plasmashell), signal: Aborted

plasmashell (5.19.80) using Qt 5.15.0

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

This time i hovered the mouse of all the way to the left, towards the launcher and clicked on it after closing a firefox window.
I have set the desktop background to plain color, black, to avoid the rendering issue with image wallpapers.
I haven't found a consistence way to tigger it.

Comment 3 Christoph Feck 2020-07-08 18:07:24 UTC
The error is: "The Wayland connection broke. Did the Wayland compositor die?"

Qt cannot recover from this error.

plasmashell (5.19.80) using Qt 5.15.0

- What I was doing when the application crashed:

This time it happen while right clicking on the desktop and hitting configure desktop.

Would please reconfirm this is a QT issue not a wayland/kde one as well as poiting to any upstream bug if possible. 
I woud like to have those as reference as this keeps happening all over the place making the wayland season pretty unstable on top of annoying.
