Start krunner the post the output of this command immediately after it fails:

Just tried it (from GNOME):

Does that happen in KDE also?

Sounds like we need a bug report...

EDIT: Hold the phone!

This is embarrassing -- krunner now works normally

Don't know why it segfaulted the first time.

I'm using the Plasma 5 variant if that makes any difference.

I am using plasma 5 too

Do you have anything in the `journalctl` output then?

shalaby · 2015-01-16 10:45:35

no nothing

I have the same problem on plasma 5.2.1. If i create a new user, this doesn't happen, so it's likely a configuration issue. I tried removing files that looked KDE-related in .config and .local, but it didn't help.

EDIT: I cleaned ~/.cache and removed ~/.config/kdeglobals and everything seems to work fine now.
