Package: kdebase-workspace-bin Version: 4:4.3.4-1 Severity: serious Tags: patch upstream fixed-upstream
plasma-desktop crashes immediatey on startup in some configurations, both on login and subsequent manual launches. This is triggered by hal 0.5.14-1, and keeping hal at 0.5.13-6 fixes the issue. This is reported [1] and fixed upstream [2]. I'm filing it here for the benefit of others, and to request a backport to 4.3.4 in Debian (the patch looks very simple).
