konqui crash report

SUMMARY
On opening KDEnlive, both via the application manager and trying to open a project, it gives the error message "The default profile of Kdenlive is not set or invalid, press OK to set it to a correct value.". Selecting ok it lets me choose between different video profiles; I've tried some of them but nothing changes: it crashes every time before opening the app window.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open kdenlive
2. select ok
3. select any video profile

OBSERVED RESULT

the application crashes

EXPECTED RESULT

Qt Version: 5.12.4

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Please try with the current Kdenlive AppImage version 20.08.0 to see if there are any packaging issues https://files.kde.org/kdenlive/release/ 

If the problem/issue doesn't occur when using the AppImage, then it's your configuration or packaging.

WARNING: Version 20.08.0 has a new project type that is not backwards compatible... so you won't be able to use older versions to open new files.

KDEnlive appimage works fine, I've been using it instead of the apt-installed version ever since this bug arose. Not sure what you mean by configuration/packaging, because I didn't change anything myself and the package was just downloaded and installed via apt
Comment 5 emohr 2020-09-12 08:18:41 UTC
Thank you for the feedback. Glad to hear it works. With configuration/packaging I meant the apt-installed version which was not proper packed.

We close this bug. If it still appears in the latest version, please feel free to re-open it and update the affected version number.
