I encountered this plasma-discover crash: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=443745

However, drkonqi seems to be unable to generate crash info for it, despite having gdb installed. I was able to manually use gdb to get a backtrace from this crash.

Maybe this is related to the fact that the crash did not appear in coredumpctl. In that case, the message that drkonqi displays should at least be more informative.

Distro: Fedora 34
Frameworks: 5.88.0

Sorry, I meant to say I'm on Fedora 35.

Not much to go on unfortunately. You could ask fedora to enable the coredump backend. It's much more reliable than the kcrash one. Chances are there was a segfault after the segfault this then screws up tracing.
