kmymoney-5.1-179-linux-64-gcc.AppImage, KIO-Client?
Classification: Applications
Product: kmymoney
Version: 5.1.2

Empty Application Launcher
When using kmymoney-5.1-179-linux-64-gcc.AppImage the entries in plasma starter
disapear after a while.
First in "Anwendungen", then even in favourites.
***
This was observed on two different machines using Kubuntu 20.04. Result: Not
even possible to start aplications by KRunner. KIO-Client application
assignments get lost (e.g. open USB memory with file manager).
No KIO-Client crash is reported. No time or action was determined, which
particularly causes the effect.
Effect was never otherwise observed with system nor with other AppImages.
Reboot does not fix. In this case Timeshift was used to restore running system.
Because of amount of different files, "bad one" could not determined.
No corresponding bug was found in database.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Make sure, you have all your entries in Application Launcher and can start
applications from there.
2. Download kmymoney-5.1-179-linux-64-gcc.AppImage from
https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/AppImage/job/KMyMoney_Release_appimage-centos7/
2. Unpack file, make it executable, start appimage
3. Do some actions in KMyMoney, not found out which ones are the "bad ones",
e.g. start setup account.
5. Check plasma Application Launcher entries regularly. Check if other apps are
found just by typing their names using Application Launcher or KRunner.
OBSERVED RESULT
No more entries (of apps) in Plasma Application Launcher, first in
"Applications", further in "Favourites".
EXPECTED RESULT
Use of AppImage No influence on entries (of apps) in Plasma Application
Launcher.
