I get occasional KF5 crashes that look a bit like that crash. What are you doing when this crash occurs? Evidently I cannot reproduce it, and since you didn't build Kate and/or KTextEditor with debug info (configure.optflags=-g) I can only guess what goes wrong in TabSwitcherPluginView::unregisterDocument()...

I deactivated the whole python variant thing, didn't I?

Not sure when there will be either. OSX-Integration is a project of mine, and is only hosted on KDE's git server as a "scratch" project. For now and the foreseeable future I'd say.

Okidoki.

In principle I have all ports installed myself, except if there are both "-devel" and regular ports of course. If we want to minimise the risk of overlooking issues like missing dependencies then yeah, I'd advise you to install everything too ...

Are you launching from the commandline? You probably need to set KDE_SESSION_VERSION in the shell too, in that case.

Maybe you indeed do not have the Ciment theme installed? I've added a runtime dependency for port:qt5-kde on port:ciment-icons .

What do you mean, "finally" ? O:-)
