I set up my PC / Laptop already twice and this error appeared after a while
again. It took a while to connect it to my dotfiles and a missing file on some
of my systems. I have it replicated in a fedora vm.

Sorry I am new to the bugtracker and the KDE ecosystem and don't know where to
file the bug exactly. I am happy to help if you need more info.
