--- Comment #2 from Raoul Snyman <ra...@snyman.info> ---
I'm also running into this bug (for a while already, to be honest). Debian
unstable, KDE Frameworks 5.28.0, Qt 5.7.1.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Launch Font Management (either via System Settings or command line)
2. Select "System Fonts" in the list on the left hand side
3. Click "Add..." button at the bottom, under the list of fonts
4. Select a range of fonts (all TTF fonts in my case)
5. Type in password when asked for autnetication
6. An error dialog shows, "Backend died, but has been restarted. Please try
again."
7. Another authentication dialog shows up immediately, re-enter password
8. Get a "Finished" message: "Please note that any open applications will need
to be restarted in order for any changes to be noticed/"
9. See that only 2 fonts have been installed.

As Alex says, sometimes the message boxes refuse to be dismissed and you have
to manually terminate Font Management with "kill".

If I run it from the command line, I see the following:

$ kcmshell5 fontinst
Service  org.kde.fontinst  not registered, starting
"/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libexec/kauth/fontinst"
