            Bug ID: 475265
           Summary: Never becomes active at startup
    Classification: Applications
           Product: k3b
           Version: 23.04.3
          Platform: Fedora RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
The splash scree/initial screen appears then nothing, no matter how long I
wait. If I start it under strace I can see that it is "statt"ing ever single
file in my unfortunately enormous home directory

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Start K3b
2. Initial screen is displayed
3. Wait forever. Nothing happens in under 30 minutes, occasionally it will
return and allow further interaction, but then it appears to go back to
scanning my entire home directory.
4. Sometimes it eventually actually works perfectly, maybe it caches its insane
scan of the home directory.
5. If you go into settings, it starts again.

OBSERVED RESULT
No result

EXPECTED RESULT
Functioning K3b

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/Gnome: Fedora 38
(available in About System)
KDE Plasma Version: dont' know
KDE Frameworks Version: don't know
Qt Version: 5.15.10-9
