In my case it is a resolution because it was most likely caused by an upgrade
from 4.14.x to 5.23.x. There are documented incompatibilities between KDE4 and
KF5 versions of KDE PIM that I was not aware of when I upgraded. This was the
likely cause of the instability. There is a recommended upgrade procedure which
I'd not followed because I was not aware of it. Deleting/recreating the akonadi
database has solved the problem in my case. YMMV. I'm happy to leave this open
for the devs to review - the cause of your issue may be different.
