Description Michiel 2024-02-18 09:06:17 UTC

Application: plasma-discover (5.27.10)

Qt Version: 5.15.12
Frameworks Version: 5.114.0
Operating System: Linux 6.5.0-18-generic x86_64
Windowing System: X11
Distribution: KDE neon 5.27
DrKonqi: 5.27.10 [KCrashBackend]

-- Information about the crash:
I booted up my PC to begin my daily routine. I see a notification in the taskbar that updates are available so I click on it. Discover opens with the Updates tab open, and stars to check for updates. A moment passes and abruptly closes without any pop-ups. A KDE notification shows saying it closed unexpectedly. I tried to update again afterwards without problems. 
I did notice when reopening Discover that it took a long while before the apps starts showing. The loading bar remained stuck for easily 20 seconds or so. This hasn't happened before. When I navigated to Updates it took a moment to find those, but eventually did.

The crash does not seem to be reproducible.

-- Backtrace:
Application: Discover (plasma-discover), signal: Segmentation fault

Hello Michiel,

5.27.10 is quite old now, unfortunately. Are you still experiencing any crashes on the latest version of KDE Plasma that your distribution offers?

Thank you!
