Kazam crashes on Kubuntu Trusty when screencasting

[Stefan]

Kubuntu 14.04.01 amd64, all software up to date.

Screencasting with kazam does not work (in Kubuntu Saucy it worked fine).

bash output:
tuxlin@tuxtop:~$ kazam --test

Hi, thank you for your report. Please update Kazam from the stable PPA and check if the problem persists. This seems like a duplicate of a bug #1298883. If it is not, reopen this issue and I'll look into it more closely.
