Bug 444483

Application: kwin_x11 (5.21.5)

Qt Version: 5.15.2
Frameworks Version: 5.86.0
Operating System: Linux 5.14.0-2-amd64 x86_64
Windowing System: X11
Distribution: Debian GNU/Linux bookworm/sid
DrKonqi: 5.23.0 [KCrashBackend]

-- Information about the crash:
KWin can no longer start after upgrading my Debian system about a week ago; I've installed debug packages to get a good stacktrace, and from looking at that and my apt history I suspect the issue was caused by upgrading libkdecorations2-5v5:amd64 from 4:5.21.5-2 to 4:5.23.0-2. (I can also send the rest of the apt history from the last day it was working if it will help)

I can still run other window managers, and I am currently using Awesome as a stop-gap to get my system working again.

The crash can be reproduced every time.

-- Backtrace:
Application: KWin (kwin_x11), signal: Segmentation fault
