All other .upd files in /usr/share/kconf_update/ contain Version=5 at the top. In krdb_libpathwipe.upd Version=5 entry is at the end. The problem occured on neon user (5.10.5) and neon dev unstable (5.11.0) installations. dpkg tells me that the file in from the source package 'plasma-desktop'
Can confirm that 'Version=5' string is located at the bottom in '/usr/share/kconf_update/krdb_libpathwipe.upd' file in: Distribution: KDE neon Developer Edition - Stable Branches Plasma: 5.11.3 Frameworks: 5.41.0 Qt: 5.9.1 Kernel 4.10.0-38-generic Type: 64-bit
