Package: drkonqi

Package: drkonqi
Version: 6.7.2-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,
drkonqi's coredump handling triggers an infinite crash loop when the
user session is not a Plasma session (e.g. plain GNOME/Wayland). This
is related to, but distinct from, Bug#1102945 (unmet condition check
spam) — in this case drkonqi-coredump-launcher actively crashes and
gets respawned repeatedly, causing severe system load rather than
just log spam.
* What led up to the situation:
plasma-workspace (and its dependency drkonqi) was installed as a
dependency of an unrelated KDE application, while the primary
desktop session in use is GNOME on Wayland (gdm3 + gnome-shell,
mutter 50.3). drkonqi-coredump-launcher.socket is enabled
unconditionally for all users regardless of desktop environment
(systemctl --user is-enabled drkonqi-coredump-launcher.socket
reports "enabled").
* What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or
ineffective):
An unrelated application (obs, PID 22301) segfaulted. This
triggered [email protected], which in turn activated
[email protected] and then
drkonqi-coredump-launcher@<n>.service via the user socket.
drkonqi-coredump-launcher immediately aborts with SIGABRT
(QMessageLogger::fatal), apparently because it cannot find a
working Qt platform plugin for the active GNOME/Wayland session
(available plugins logged: minimal, xcb, eglfs, vnc, linuxfb,
wayland-brcm, wayland-egl, wayland, minimalegl, offscreen,
vkkhrdisplay — none initializes successfully in this context).
Because drkonqi-coredump-launcher itself crashes, systemd-coredump
captures *that* crash too, which appears to re-trigger the same
socket-activation path. The result is a rapid loop:
drkonqi-coredump-launcher is spawned, crashes with SIGABRT, is
respawned, crashes again — observed at roughly one crash every
~500ms, producing 30+ core dumps (~850KB each) within 18 seconds
from a single initial application crash.
* What was the outcome of this action:
Desktop responsiveness degrades severely during the loop (D-Bus
and disk I/O saturation from repeated core writes to
/var/lib/systemd/coredump/), giving the impression that the GNOME
session itself has crashed, even though gnome-shell remains
running throughout (confirmed via journalctl timestamps showing
continuous gnome-shell operation across the incident window).
* What outcome did you expect instead:
drkonqi-coredump-launcher should not be socket-activated at all
in a non-Plasma session, or should fail gracefully (log and exit
once) rather than being respawned in a crash loop when no
compatible Qt platform plugin / KDE session is available.
