Bug 506942

SUMMARY
This was also reported here: https://bugzilla.suse.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1246411

This morning I've performed a "zypper up" and it picked up some updates from OBS KDE/Plasma repos (looks like KDE Apps update to 6.16 and some libQt6Quick3D updates and sddm-qt6-branding rpm). Now, when sddm starts you see the login screen, mouse moves and that's it. It is impossible to select a user to login nor enter a password. 

After a bit of poking around, I have noticed that sddm-greeter-qt6 is crashing with the following stack trace (full gdb info attached).

I've attempted to purge /var/lib/sddm/.cache but that made no difference.

Reproducible: Always

Actual Results:  
sddm-greeter-qt6 crashes, impossible to login

Expected Results:  
sddm-greeter-qt6 does not crash, users can login

Something else I've noticed is that as a result of installing sddm-qt6-branding-openSUSE-6.4.2 the contents of 10-plasma.conf and 11-kwin_wayland.conf in /usr/lib/sddm/sddm.conf.d are very similar.
