Did you miss the big banner in the template that said that if you're reporting a crash, you need to attach a backtrace of the crash? I notice you deleted that text, but did not attach a backtrace. C'mon, John, I know you can do better than this. :) Because if something crashed, we need a backtrace of it so we can figure out what's going on. Otherwise it's a waste of both of our time. So can you please attach a backtrace of the crash using the coredumpctl command-line program, as detailed in https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports#Retrieving_a_backtrace_using_coredumpctl? Thanks!
