SUMMARY

After an update performed on Fedora 42 KDE spin, on reboot, `kwin_wayland` core dumps. Core dump log acquired via `coredumpctl` tool is attached.
I've also tried to manually start a session with virtual terminal but it didn’t help.
I am told to file a bug on KDE Bugtracking System that can be seen in webpage : https://discuss.kde.org/t/kwin-wayland-core-dumping-fedora-42/33208

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Performing a boot alone causes this bug.
1. Starting a Wayland Plasma Session manually (e.g. `kwin_wayland plasmashell`) causes this bug.
