Description Andrei Rybak 2020-09-11 10:03:20 UTC 
Error notifications are shown for "kdialog". With the following message
"The Window Switcher installation is broken, resources are missing. Contact your distribution about this."

The error notification appeared around 5-10 times. I wasn't able to pinpoint exact steps to reproduce this error.

Comment 1 Andrei Rybak 2020-09-11 11:06:50 UTC 
It seems that the error appears on some of the Alt-Tabs, which is bound to "Walt Through Windows" in System Settings > Shortcuts > System Services > Kwin.
Comment 2 Christoph Feck 2020-09-11 14:20:52 UTC 
kdialog is only the external tool to allow kwin to display non-blocking dialogs.

Haven't encountered this error since, so closing the ticket.
