            Bug ID: 471043
           Summary: Dolphin (flathub install) crashes on launch due to no
                    thumbnail directory
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 23.04.2
          Platform: Flatpak
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Installed Dolphin from flathub.  Tried to launch, it would appear for a few
seconds then crash.   Running from a terminal showed the following

[user at pc ~]$ flatpak run org.kde.dolphin
kf.kio.widgets: Cannot read information about filesystem under path
"/home/user/.var/app/org.kde.dolphin/cache/thumbnails/"
kf.solid.frontend.devicemanager: Couldn't get StorageAccess for
""/home/user/.var/app/org.kde.dolphin/cache/thumbnails/"" - File doesn't exist

Manually creating the thumbnails directory solved the issue (would have thought
the installation or first run would create this).  Note I am running Sway
window manager and have only DigiKam and Dolphin installed from KDE currently
via flatpak.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. install Dolphin from flathub
2. launch dolphin (from rofi)
3. wait a few seconds

OBSERVED RESULT
Dolphin crashed


EXPECTED RESULT
Not crashing

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Fedora Sericea (up to date as of 20230614)

KDE Application Platform:  Branch 5.15-22.08  (updated 20230614 from flathub
stable)
