           Summary: Crash but No Error message is shown when running the
                    compiled binary for Kexi3.1Alpha

           Version: 3.1 Alpha
          Platform: Compiled Sources
                OS: Linux

  Target Milestone: ---

I tried building Kexi Alpha3.1, the build was successful but I was not able to
run the binary. Here's the screenshot[https://i.imgur.com/SJM797k.png] of the
error I get when I try to run the binary. I suppose there should be a proper
error message shown why the crash happened. This is the bug I am reporting this
for.

On the otherhand, It shows an error about knotification not configured
properly, but that should not stop kexi from starting and I suppose
knotification was called in the first place because the error message dialogue
was raised.

So either I did some wrong steps in building kexi most probably, nevertheless
there should be a proper error message in that dialog box.

Here are the build steps I followed.

I followed the recommended setup and git cloned the sources of kdb, kproperty,
kreport and kexi.

After that, I built kdb,kproperty and kreport using the following flag:

$ cmake -H. -B~/kde/build/PACKAGE_NAME_HERE -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/kde/inst5

After that I did make and make install on all these packages and they were
installed in ~/kde/inst5
I installed the other dependencies like GraphViz and doxygen from the package
manager and built kexi3.1Alpha using the following command:

$ cmake -H. -B~/kde/build/kexi -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/kde/inst5
-DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/kde/inst5

The build was successful, with a warning that the recommended package marble
was not included, that's fine because I don't need marble for now.

Now when I run ~/kde/inst5/bin/kexi3.1
I get an error about the breeze icons not found, Kexi is searching for the
breeze icons in ~/.local/share/kexi instead of ~/kde/inst5/share/kexi , So I
copied the kexi directory from inst5 to the .local one and the error about the
icons was gone.

Now there were few more errors about some speech engine, I installed them with
my package manager and those errors were gone.

Now I am left with what's in the screenshot I provided in the start.

If there was a proper error message I couldn've done something but I am
completely clueless now what to do and how to do.
