[SOLVED] Merkuro Calendar (previously Kalendar) segfaults on launch.

I've just updated to the Merkuro suite that replaces Kalendar, and I've been excited to try it. Merkuro Mail is a great application for me who doesn't need all the bells and whistles of KMail, and laments the lack of a tray icon function in Thunderbird.
Anyways, while Merkuro Mail and Contacts work fine, Merkuro Calendar segfaults on launch. This is the terminal output when I start it with Konsole:

merkuro-calendar 
qrc:/BasicMonthListView.qml:22:5: Required property startDate was not initialized
qrc:/MainDrawerToggleButton.qml:25: TypeError: Cannot read property 'collapsed' of undefined
qrc:/MainDrawerToggleButton.qml:14: TypeError: Cannot read property 'collapsed' of undefined
qrc:/MainDrawerToggleButton.qml:11: TypeError: Cannot read property 'mainDrawer' of undefined
30 -- exe=/usr/bin/merkuro-calendar
17 -- platform=wayland
25 -- appname=merkuro-calendar
17 -- apppath=/usr/bin
10 -- signal=11
9 -- pid=5205
19 -- appversion=23.08.0
29 -- programname=Merkuro Calendar
31 -- bugaddress=submit@bugs.kde.org
KCrash: crashing... crashRecursionCounter = 2
KCrash: Application Name = merkuro-calendar path = /usr/bin pid = 5205
KCrash: Arguments: /usr/bin/merkuro-calendar 
KCrash: Attempting to start /usr/lib/drkonqi
kf5idletime_wayland: This plugin does not support polling idle time

[1]+  Stopped                 merkuro-calendar

This happens in both X11 and Wayland, English and Norwegian locale.
It works fine when I downgrade back to the pre-Merkuro release, however, I would like to keep using Merkuro Mail; but I rely more on Kalendar, so if I can't use Merkuro Calendar I've no choice but to downgrade.

I have already reported the issue to the developers here, and I attached backtraces in there as well: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473618

What I'm mostly wondering is, does anyone else have this issue, and have you found a workaround perhaps?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers,
Aurora

Re: [SOLVED] Merkuro Calendar (previously Kalendar) segfaults on launch.

It is still crashing with a segmentation fault

Re: [SOLVED] Merkuro Calendar (previously Kalendar) segfaults on launch.

It is also an already known bug (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=472793).
Why is an app that is still that faulty pushed to extra?

Because it is not Arch's job to fix upstream bugs.

Well, the error is fixed in 23.08.1: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473618

The version in the repos is 23.08.0-2

As a workaround you can start with `LANGUAGE=C merkuro-calendar`and it should run just fine.

If $LANG is not set on your system add it as well, e.g. `LANG=de_DE.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=C merkuro-calendar`

Which already includes the fix for https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473618 see https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/ … ea3ea4dec8
What did you find 23.08.1?  https://invent.kde.org/pim/merkuro/-/tags

The issue clearly says it will be fixed in 23.08.1 (see Version Fixed in). The linked commit is from August 27th. The Tag for release 28.08.0 is from August 17th... so everything after that will be in a new version, not? IMHO the commit is not in Version 23.08.0

And the bug still happens on my system with 23.08.0-2 installed, and the workaround is still working.

Note the different tense you used compared to tOmAtE.

The work around from https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=472793 which is not marked as fixed and not mentioned in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=473618 which is already addressed in 23.08.0-2?

No, the bug doesn't happen, a different bug happens. You are mixing them up.
