ahoy, I just noticed that frameworks applications explode when started without a sycoca:
Trying to open ksycoca from "/home/me/.project-neon5-kde//cache/ksycoca5" Trying to open global ksycoca from "/home/me/.project-neon5-kde//local/share/kde5/services/ksycoca5" Still no database... ASSERT: "str" in file /build/buildd/project-neon5-kdelibs-0.0+git20131112+r97303~d1059d8+neon11~ubuntu13.10.1/tier3/kservice/src/services/kservicetypefactory.cpp, line 36 ^ Supposedly kbuildsycoca5 should be run at this point. This only happens when one removes the cache after kdeinit5 was run. e.g. kdeinit5 rm -rf .kde plasma-shell Confirmed to be the case with at least plasma-shell and kwin.
