           Summary: Plasma does not start (infinite loop)
           Product: plasma
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: crash
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: panel-devel kde org
        ReportedBy: mike blueroot co uk


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

A change in the last 24 hours or so stops plasma from launching.  I tried deleting plasmarc and plasma-appletsrc but get the same error.

Here is the output.
