Bug also reported by another user on KDE bugtracker: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=487098 The culprit is the 6.0.4 update.
FEDORA-2024-06d286a7c5 (kwin-x11-6.0.4.1-2.fc40) has been submitted as an update to Fedora 40. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-2024-06d286a7c5
Unfortunately, the 6.0.4.1-2.fc40 update doesn't work because the patch didn't get applied. The kwin-x11 spec uses %setup, while the kwin spec uses %autosetup. If I change the %setup line to: %autosetup -p1 -n kwin-%{version} and rebuild the kwin-x11 package, then everything works without crashing again.
%autosetup is just broken and should never be used. I have simply added the missing %patch line (%patch -P0 -p1 -b .syncobj-v1). I am now building this. This is also interesting because the patch is actually relevant only for Wayland, but somehow manages to make binary-incompatible changes to global internal data structures that end up breaking kwin-x11, grrr…
This makes me wonder whether we should actually change the hard Requires on the kwin Version to one on the exact Version-Release, though that would probably have to be maintained manually because we cannot always keep Release in sync (e.g., in this case, where a mistake in kwin-x11 packaging required another Release bump).
I wish the KDE SIG would just stop backporting changes from KWin git master (not even the release branch, the pull request to 6.0 https://invent.kde.org/plasma/kwin/-/merge_requests/5511 was rejected upstream) touching 38 files and adding 980 lines (and removing 6 lines) to what is supposed to be a stable release of KWin in a stable release of Fedora.
I can confirm kwin-x11-6.0.4.1-3.fc40 works, thanks!
