Some of the time was spent on setting up the session. Once I could work on his box, we started the analysis of what's going on. I was wondering, why the kmm libraries show up in /lib64 when I expect them at /usr/lib64 (where I also found them). Turns out, that on Fedora /lib64 is a symlink to /usr/lib64. Ok, so not the cause of the problem. I then added some debug code to the reportsview ctor where the crash happens. We were wondering, because we did not see any debug output. Turns out, that the missing debug output was caused by a missing configuration in ~/.config/QtProject/qtlogging.ini. Once we turned that on, we saw all the messages we are used to. But where's the one I added just infront of the crash location? We saw the crash happening but no debug output. That is strange. We found out, that all plugins were build a few moments ago, except the reports plugin which carried a date of about 4 weeks ago. Strange, but it would explain what is going on. We manually removed the plugins libraries et voilà: KMyMoney was running again without crash. Looking closely at the cmake output, JV spotted that the reports view was listed among the things that are disabled. Well, that would explain, why it never replaced the old version. But why did it not get built? Further investigation showed, that the KChart module (which is a pre-requisite for the reports plugin) was not found during cmake time. Long story short: the dev package of it was missing while the library was installed. How did all this happen: JV build on a prior Fedora version (KChart dev package was found and the reports plugin was built. Then he upgraded to Fedora and that apparently removed the KChart dev package. and replaced it with KChart6 dev package, but that does not help here and started the trouble. Then running cmake again, the reports plugin was not built and installing KMyMoney kept the old version. Installing the KChart dev package for KF5, rerunning cmake, compiling and installing brought back the full functionality and JV is a happy camper.
