Upon starting KDE, plasma-desktop crashes immediately after the opening splash. The crash has been occuring over many versions of KDE. This problem has been discussed in the forums here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-811710.html And in the KDE forums here: http://forum.kde.org/viewtopic.php?f=67&t=87378 In the KDE forums, I was asked to verify the existence of 2 icons, and I found that one was missing: $KDEDIR/share/apps/desktoptheme/default/icons/battery.svgz The person who pointed to this claimed it was a packaging error. The file is not anywhere else on the system (according to locate). Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start X and KDE from the console. Actual Results: Plasma crashes immediately after the splash. Expected Results: The KDE desktop should have opened and been ready to use.

Created attachment 230117 [details] Crash backtrace
Problem was solved by recompiling qt-core, qt-gui and glib. I believe it was glib that did it, because I have previously upgraded Qt from 4.5 to 4.6 during which I had the problem.
