Absolutely impossible to start plasma-workspace later after any waiting time period. Upgrade to KDE 4.11 (debian experimental) did NOT resolve the issue. - Custom settings of the application: Debian GNU/Linux jessie/sid (64bit) The crash can be reproduced every time. -- Backtrace: Application: Plasma-Desktop-Umgebung (plasma-desktop), signal: Segmentation fault Using host libthread_db library "/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libthread_db.so.1".

Something related with python binding does wrong in Debian. Remove all python plasmoid, or simply move ~/.kde4/share/config/*plasma* to another place as workaround. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 326270 ***
Dear Jekyll, you are right. It is the file "plasma-desktop-appletsrc" which causes the crash. Unfortunately, it contains the whole lot of handwork regarding desktop customization. So if there was a way to selectively remove only the item that really hurts, I would really like some time to track down the issue. May strace be helpful? Something like $ strace plasma-desktop 3>&1 1>&2 2>&3 | grep -i python sock_file=/home/username/.kde/socket-dream/kdeinit4__0 sock_file=/home/username/.kde/socket-dream/kdeinit4__0 but I had to know what to look for...
