ksplashqml backtrace

On FreeBSD 14.0-CURRENT, after installing the newest updates (ie. directly after a `pkg update && pkg upgrade`), booting Plasma through SDDM results in SDDM booting directly to a black screen with a cursor, and booting through LightDM results in the same situation but with an added crash dump and backtrace for ksplashqml. Backtrace is attached below.

core dump is larger than attachment size limit, uploaded here: https://nsood.in/freebsd/ksplashqml.core

403 forbidden. 

----

If I recall correctly: 

- there was discussion of this bug a few days ago, without a bug report

- a workaround involved removal of files, maybe remnants.
Comment 3 Naman Sood 2023-07-21 18:37:38 UTC
I ended up fixing this by running sudo pkg remove kde5 && sudo pkg autoremove && sudo pkg install kde5. So something with broken/remnant files makes sense, and for future reference this seems to fix it.
Comment 4 Naman Sood 2023-07-21 18:40:05 UTC
The core dump should be accessible now, if you still need it.

Not a workaround for me, unfortunately. 

Here's a transcript of the session that preceded a temporary retry of the bugged boot environment (n264150-c65845d0bb2d-c).
