Description retired 2014-06-18 09:22:04 UTC 
I was using plasma-next for a while but everytime I was loging in there was this error message telling me that phonon-vlc failed to load because of faulty vlc. I have figured out that I have no vlc :)
After installing it plasma-next is no longer working, after I log in it just crashes with message about kdeinit5 and that there are no logs to be gathered.

Well, I have figured out to generate some stuff from dbg symbols, I hope this helps.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Get annoyed by error saying that phonom backend failed to start because your vlc is faulty
2.  Install vlc
3.  Crash kdeinit5 and kwin everytime you login
Actual Results:  
Crashy crash with kwin not decorating.

Expected Results:  
It should show me new shiny plasma.

I have removed vlc and then it deps with autoremove. Now  I have no error about phonon-backend failing ans session is working.

Installed vlc back in. It crashes kwin but plasma is rather loaded.
