This also happens when you copy a link to the desktop from the menu
instead of just linking. The app is marked with a cautionary sign and
there is a warning message indicated on the taskbar which you can't see
because the mouse doesn't respond and the dialog window is not
displayed. Log out, log in again and click on the desktop link and it
allows you to continue after warning about the app and the warning is
reset.

Title:
Plasma sort of freezes when link accessed after app removed
Status in xorg package in Ubuntu:
New
Bug description:
If a link to an application is created on the desktop (from start menu
drag-n-drop) and then the application is removed, further referencing
the link as with ouse right click causes the dekstop to not respond.
The keyboard is still functional so you can alt-F2 and logout and log
back in. So it appears to be a KDE issue.
If the link file is manually removed, it disappears from the desktop
and solves the problem.
I am using kubuntu arty with latest updates as of 10/14/17.
I think this is fairly consistent and easily reproducible.
