FYI,

KDE SIG is investigating some recent/serious reported crasher bugs in 
rawhide, notably:

"Could not sync environment to dbus." (startkde)
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1191171

and (an older one, but the situation has gotten worse recently):

Qt5 application crashes when connecting/disconnecting displays
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1083664
https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-44388


Initial theories are that gcc5 landing may have something to do with it, 
since the recent crashes go away reverting to pre-gcc5 builds of the same 
packages.


More debugging and testing is ongoing, and will post more when this is 
better understood.
