Description Piotr Mierzwinski 2024-09-17 21:51:54 UTC
SUMMARY
Since couple days (I think issue started at Friday) I face with crashing plasma. I have an impression that this happened when plasma switched into beta. I updated plasma in my distribution ("Neon unstable edition") every day.

As in subject. Any click into icon of application placed in taskbar or icon placed systray causes crash. I have an impression that it happens even with no action with panel. For example recently I involved Alt+F2 and plasma also crashed. Funny was that when I did it again after plasma restarted it was working. 

After plasma crashed I usually click "send automatic report", and of course, it causes that data about crash starts collecting. Unfortunately after many minutes of work Crash Handler also fails "for unknown reason" (check attached screenshot). More details is present in "view detailed report", what suggests that this is issue with gdb (check attached full report). So I cannot even send bug report.

In last lines of this report I can see:
<cut>
/build/gdb-Dh0pdX/gdb-12.1/gdb/findvar.c:209: internal-error: store_typed_address: type is not a pointer or reference
A problem internal to GDB has been detected,
further debugging may prove unreliable.
Quit this debugging session? (y or n) [answered Y; input not from terminal]

This is a bug, please report it.  For instructions, see:
<https://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/bugs/>.

Debugging ended with exit code '6' and exit status 'CrashExit'
</cut>

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. login into plasma session
My session is restored, so after start I have several running application (some are minimized)
2. click into icon of any minimized or not, application
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
crash of plasma and restart

EXPECTED RESULT
should not crash

This is a Neon-specific bug that should be fixed with https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/4715.
