Wolfgang, thank you for your patience.... I found it! The plasma-widget "Homerun-Kicker" (https://blogs.kde.org/2014/01/29/homerun-120) causing this plasma- desktop crash!!!!
I removed the homerun-kicker plasmoid and voila, no more plasma-desktop crashes when editing my dolphin places entries! ~ zypper se -si homerun S | Name | Typ | Version | Arch | Repository --+----------------+-------+------------+--------+----------- i | homerun | Paket | 1.2.5-19.6 | x86_64 | KDE:Extra i | homerun-kicker | Paket | 1.2.5-19.6 | x86_64 | KDE:Extra i | libhomerun0 | Paket | 1.2.5-19.6 | x86_64 | KDE:Extra -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to kde4libs in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1422469 Title: Dolphin won't keep the folder shortcuts on Kubuntu 15.04 with Plasma 5.
