system is up-to-date using kde-unstable repository, kdebase-workspace was updated today (with no noticeable effect)

have tried with new .kde4 folder and in a different user account (root) with the same result

tried kf5 and it started up, however there were graphical issues so i'm hoping to get this kde4 resumed.

any support is appreciated.
