SUMMARY Plasmashell can be crashed by launching an app and opening another apps context menu while the app is still launching. Note: I also submitted on (or two?) automatic bug reports, but I can't view these. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Have some apps pinned to the icons only task manager/panel, all apps are closed 2. Launch an app that takes some seconds to start (reproduced this with signal-desktop from flatpak, Firefox from openSUSE and VirtualBox from openSUSE). 3. While the app from step 2 is still launching, right click on another apps symbol to open its context menu (reproduced the bug by right-clicking on libreoffice calc and quodlibet music player) 4. If you clicked fast enough, just wait for the app from step two to finish launching and plasmashell will crash OBSERVED RESULT EXPECTED RESULT SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: macOS: (available in the Info Center app, or by running `kinfo` in a terminal window) Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma Version: KDE Frameworks Version: Qt Version: ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: openSUSE Tumbleweed 20241121 KDE Plasma Version: 6.2.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.8.0 Qt Version: 6.8.0 Kernel Version: 6.11.8-1-default (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland
I can't reproduce this. If something crashed, and you want to use Bugzilla to track it (as opposed to letting us handle it via the automatic crash report system), then we need a backtrace of the crash so we can figure out what's going on. 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?
Created attachment 176119 [details] Backtrace of the crash by attaching gdb to running plasmashell Added backtrace of the crash (by attaching gdb to running plasmashell and then reproducing the crash).
Thank you! That's helpful.
