(not sure if full Plasma crash is severity crash or major/grave, so leaving crash, even if that probably applies just to the widget/app level)

If something crashed, we need a backtrace of it so we can figure out what's going on.

Can you please attach a backtrace of the crash using the `coredumpctl` command-line program, as detailed in https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Retrieving_a_backtrace_using_coredumpctl?

Thanks!

Thank you for the backtrace. Unfortunately, it's incomplete and missing debug symbols for the following lines that we need to figure out exactly what's going wrong:


#5  0x000078cf09fb1f3b n/a (org.kde.plasma.weather.so + 0x60f3b)
#6  0x000078cf3309fc89 n/a (libQt6Core.so.6 + 0x49fc89)
#18 0x0000556c579302f8 n/a (plasmashell + 0x3e2f8)

Could you please install debug packages and attach a new symbolicated backtrace generated by using `coredumpctl gdb` in a terminal window? See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Retrieving_a_backtrace_using_coredumpctl for details about how to do this. Thanks again!
