Description Paul 2023-06-14 23:29:08 UTC 
SUMMARY
Installed Dolphin from flathub.  Tried to launch, it would appear for a few seconds then crash.   Running from a terminal showed the following

[user@pc ~]$ flatpak run org.kde.dolphin
kf.kio.widgets: Cannot read information about filesystem under path "/home/user/.var/app/org.kde.dolphin/cache/thumbnails/"
kf.solid.frontend.devicemanager: Couldn't get StorageAccess for ""/home/user/.var/app/org.kde.dolphin/cache/thumbnails/"" - File doesn't exist

Manually creating the thumbnails directory solved the issue (would have thought the installation or first run would create this).  Note I am running Sway window manager and have only DigiKam and Dolphin installed from KDE currently via flatpak.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. install Dolphin from flathub
2. launch dolphin (from rofi)
3. wait a few seconds

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin crashed


EXPECTED RESULT
Not crashing

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Fedora Sericea (up to date as of 20230614)

KDE Application Platform:  Branch 5.15-22.08  (updated 20230614 from flathub stable)
