For several months, Inkscape has been acting janky for me. At first, it was being unable to drag and drop in the layer view after doing so for the first time, and now any number of actions cause it to interminably freeze. For how long, I'm not sure.
When launching Inkscape from terminal, I consistently get this:
(org.inkscape.Inkscape:304680): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 21:21:34.979: invalid accelerator string ''
(org.inkscape.Inkscape:304680): Gtk-CRITICAL **: 21:21:34.979: gtk_application_accels_get_actions_for_accel: assertion 'accel_key.key != 0' failed

I'm not getting freezes, but crashes with Inkscape 1.4-7 on KDE. I am seeing the following log entries in the system journal when the crash happens:
