--- Comment #4 from Bob English <bobofenglish at zoho.com> ---
I have some more info to add:

Seems that other apps may also be effected, giving David Hurka's theory more
weight, as the app Persopolis (*a download app) As described in my initial
report, showed similar odd behavior:  This morning it opened on reboot, and
this time I didn't close it which is supposed to just minimize it to the system
trey, which it didn't do yesterday, but rather closed altogether and couldn't
be launched by any means, after which I opened dolphin only to find many tabs
and duplicates of often navigated places, and sluggish behavior, and "running
progress indicator popups in separate dolphin I had also closed for sure back
the tab bar, which I closed and then closed dolphin itself, to see if it would
reoccur on open, which revealed 2 dolphin windows (much smaller than  I keep it
with never seen before running progress indicators with red slanted stripes and
tabs open to persopolis download location tabs referring to the two last
downloads I had not yet cleared from Persopolos's interface, for which I would
have taken a screen shot of, but it already gave me a heap of trouble last
night too, and didn't launch on [PrtScn] to select a portion of the screen, and
would only work on [Shift]+[PrtScn] and reported "Whole screen image saved to
Default location, which I had set to a sub-folder thereof, but once open It did
let me open the advanced interface, and select a portion of the screen, and in
trying all kinds of stuff, including resetting it to my lost preferences, but
only to flip out in more than one new and odd ways, like not recognizing cursor
movement, position and mouse clicks! I have also had the cursor go missing in
LibreOffice writer, and wild clicking at random seemed to help it recover,
sluggish performance, and one one document was loaded, no aditional documents
could be opened after the first when trying to open them from Dolphin, as well
as LO writer not launching at all after close, and other strange problems I
can't really remember in detail which I didn't suspect were, but now do may be
related.

So in short:  HEEEEEEEEEEEEELP My Linux is having a mental breakdown!!!  (<:

So I don't think clearing Okular's recent list can fix all that!

Hope this can steer someone in the know in the right direction.  I would love
to use KDE's built in bug reporting facility, to gather all the right logs, but
so far it has never worked on Arch for as long as I knew of it's existence, and
am lost as to what all to copy or generate copies, let alone which ones to
send, or where exactly to find them... but will be glad to if asked, with the
details as how to, and of course take note of them for the future.

Thanks for any help!
