Please install debug symbols for at least dolphin and kservice and try again.
Comment 4 Samik R 2020-09-07 05:00:15 UTC
Hello,
I couldn't find the debug symbols for kservice. Are they preinstalled? I have installed debug symbols for dolphin.
Thanks.

/home/samik# apt-cache search kservice dbg
chkservice-dbgsym - debug symbols for chkservice
^^ This doesn't seem relevant

Please ask in a forum of your distribution for exact package names.
Comment 6 Christoph Feck 2020-09-08 10:35:49 UTC
On a second look, the versions of Qt and KDE software you are using are outdated. Please use recent versions when reporting issues.
Comment 7 Samik R 2020-09-08 12:51:54 UTC
Hmm ... I am using KDE Plasma through Debian distribution (Debian 10/Buster), and would not be able to upgrade Dolphin or Plasma separately. Probably would have to wait for next Debian release then. Thanks for all the inputs so far.
