Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: kdebase

After upgrading to karmic from jaunty, plasma started taking an enormous amount 
of time to start. I can see akonadi notifications and even sounds from other 
applications but the desktop doesn't show up for more than a minute. Stopping 
plasma from konsole with:
$ kquitapp plasma-desktop

and then launching plasma again I get something like:

plasma-desktop(5191): Communication problem with  "plasma-desktop" , it 
probably crashed.                      
Error message was:  "org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.NoReply" : " "Did not receive a 
reply. Possible causes include: the remote application did not send a reply, 
the message bus security policy blocked the reply, the reply timeout expired, 
or the network connection was broken." " 

and 10 to 20 seconds latter:

Unrecognized character: /
Unrecognized character: /                
ERROR: syntax error
