backtrace

***
I installed Kasts on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed 20250119 from its standard repository. Since the first start attempt, Kasts crashes on startup. When I start it from konsole, it throws:

Database version 10
KCrash: Application 'kasts' crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2
Illegal access to memory (SIGSEGV) (core dumped ...)

When running with gdp:
