SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.77.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I just installed Arch from scratch on my new laptop and encounter one strange
thing: On my old system Kate's sidebar visibility preferences were saved when
closing and reopening it.
This does not work on the new system and I cannot figure out why. Here is what
I see in journalctl -f:
→ Start (from Task bar)
plasmashell:

Aditionally I get these (the dictionary error multiple times) on the console
since I did not yet install any spell checking.
I think that these should not clutter syslog in such way. Test for spell
plugins and report ONCE that none have been found.

My questions:
- Why aren't my display prefs (like line number visibility) not saved? The
program settings (like font size) DO get saved! How to debug it further?
- Is the "kdeinit5: Qt: Session management error: networkIdsList argument is
NULL" error related to my issue? How to debug it further?
- What are the "TypeError: Cannot read property 'length' of undefined"? Does
that have anything to do with my issue?
- What are the "XCB errors (BadWindow)"? Should I report them elsewhere or does
the Kate team know and handle these?
