Spectacle showing no preview but with tool tip of image size

With the latest release of spectacle

ver. 16.0.8.3
KDE Frameworks 5.28
Qt 5.7.0 (built against 5.7.0)

Spectacle no longer show the preview after the screenshot is taken. (see the
first attachment with tooltip showing a preview of the image is present for an
image of 314x171 pixels). You can also grab the blank area with the mouse and
drag it which reveals the image (see attachment 2 showing drag of invisible
preview). The image is actually there because it saves.

Which brings up another HUGE bug with spectacle -- it's too dumb to be able to
take a picture of itself. So the only way I had to produce these diagnostic
snapshots was to run kde3/ksnapshot via ssh to capture the problem with plasma
spectacle - which I could thankfully save to my web server via the sftpkio --
something else that is broken in spectacle. (see attachment or image capture)

I don't know what broke with spectacle. The preview did work not too long ago.
The only changes have been updates to kdebase-runtime, etc. The relevant update
history is:

[2016-11-25 21:59] [ALPM] upgraded kdebase-runtime (16.08.3-1 -> 16.08.3-3)
[2016-11-29 03:45] [ALPM] upgraded kdebase-runtime (16.08.3-3 -> 16.08.3-4)
[2016-11-29 03:45] [ALPM] upgraded kdegraphics-okular (16.08.3-1 -> 16.08.3-2)
[2016-12-01 14:25] [ALPM] upgraded kdevplatform (5.0.2-1 -> 5.0.3-1)
[2016-12-01 14:25] [ALPM] upgraded kdevelop (5.0.2-2 -> 5.0.3-1)

That or the kdegraphics-okular update seem like likely suspects.
