When Plasma 5.8.3 and kf5-kio-core-5.27.0-1.fc24.x86_64 arrived into F24, I started experiencing "the process for file procotol is dead unexpectedly" error messages when opening file picker in Qt based applications. I opened bugreport [1] and then I started trying to retrieve debuginfos. I installed kdebugsettings, enabled the KIO debug messages, but I don't see any message related to the crash in both ~/.xsession-errors and journalctl. I attach ~/.config/QtProject/qtlogging.ini at URL [2]

I could not retrieve logs with the guide I followed because the affected application use KDE libs 4, not KDE Framework 5. I followed [1] and the moment I run kdeinit4 Konsole showed some messages about ~/. files, but I haven't paid attention to them. Suddenly the problem disappeared. I even tried to relogin, reboot the system, but there is no way to reproduce it again. This is very strange because I experienced it for ~ more than an entire week... Anyway, thanks to Rex Dieter and Pino Toscano
