Public bug reported:
Installing plasma-widget-redshift causes the Plasma Desktop to crash
with segfault 11 after restarting the computer.
The widget will work as expected if you run /usr/bin/redshiftautostart
immediately after installation: the icon appears in the system tray and
Redshift adjustments work properly. But then if you reboot the system,
log on, and wait for the desktop to start, Plasma crashes. The wallpaper
and the panel disappear, leaving a black screen. KRunner still works, so
it's possible to at least do some stuff, including uninstalling the
widget.
I tried moving RedshiftAutostart.desktop out of /usr/share/autostart.
This did not help -- the crash still occurs.
If necessary, I can copy-paste the output of the debug window, although
without the symbols that's probably not too useful. I'm wondering if
there's possibly something malformed in one of the services/.operations
or services/.desktop files, perhaps?
Note that this problem occurs both in the package included in the Trusty
repository and in a binary compiled from source downloaded via Git.
FWIW, there was no problem at all using this widget in Saucy.
