Comment 1 Lorenz Hoffmann 2021-03-27 12:40:37 UTC 
Exact console ouput is:

QDBusConnection: error: could not send signal to service "" path "//home/lorenzh/.kde4/share/config/kdeglobals" interface "org.kde.kconfig.notify" member "ConfigChanged": Invalid object path: //home/lorenzh/.kde4/share/config/kdeglobals
Comment 2 David Edmundson 2021-03-27 12:47:55 UTC 
It's not a typo, it's a lack or normalisation in KConfigWatcher paths. 

It's harmless as we know there's no-one listening on that path, but something I should fix

A fix would be nice now. At least for Yin&Yang[*]; there may be others profiting from it.

Comment 4 Lorenz Hoffmann 2024-03-09 18:58:29 UTC 
This seems to be solved in Plasma 6, as I don't get the message anymore.
