more system information

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Run: /usr/local/bin/kdenlive-22.04.0-2-x86_64.AppImage
2. Popup: Error -- Kdenlive: Unable to create io-slave. Can not find io-slave for protocol 'tags'."
3. I click OK and kdenlive seems to come up OK.

OBSERVED RESULT
I haven't done much with this version, so I don't know what this impacts.

EXPECTED RESULT
No error popup.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: 18.04.6 LTS
(available in About System)
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.93.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2 (built against 5.15.2)
For more details about my system (e.g. pkg versions installed) see attachment ubuntu-10.xml.gz

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I also saw this in the output from Kdenlive when it starts:
kf.kio.core: couldn't create slave: "Can not find io-slave for protocol 'tags'."
kf.kio.core: "Unable to create io-slave. Can not find io-slave for protocol 'tags'."

When using kdenlive-21.12.2-x86_64.appimage this error does not occur.

Here are some more details about this defect. This is mostly an annoyance because it delays the start up of kdenlive. After clicking on the OK button things seem to work OK.

This bug report: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=454185 was closed because it could not be reproduced. More can be found at:
https://discuss.kde.org/t/popup-error-dialog-kio-worker-prob/2282
And I've included more details here.

The KIO-worker-popup started to appear in kdenlive-23.04.1 on my Ubuntu and mxlinux laptops. Both use KDE Plasma for the desktop.  KDE Plasma seems to be the important part for reproducing the bug.

kdenlive-21.12.2-x86_64.appimage - no popup with this and earlier versions
kdenlive-22.04.2-x86_64.AppImage - KIO-worker-popup first appears with this version and all other versions after this.
