Bug ID: 401036

Product: plasmashell

Stack trace from Apport crash report
SUMMARY
I keep the Comic Strip plasmoid open on my desktop. I only follow a handful of
comics, but the first one on the list is the Astronomy Picture of the Day
(APOD). So this is the comic displayed by default in the plasmoid.
Occasionally APOD's "image" isn't a picture but some kind of embedded video.
*Every time* the APOD feed switches to a video, plasma crashes. When I
re-launch plasmashell from the command line, the Comic widget opens but
displays nothing. Plasma then works fine until APOD again decides to show a
video.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Add Comic plasmoid to the desktop.
2. Configure Comic to display APOD.
3. Wait for APOD to show a video instead of an image
OBSERVED RESULT
Plasma crashes.
I see this on the CLI output:
----------
"apod:2018-11-13" pluging reported an error.
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
----------
(Yes, "pluging" is exactly what's printed.)
EXPECTED RESULT
Plasma shouldn't crash!
