Thank you for your report!

However, processing it in order to get sufficient information for the
developers failed (it does not generate a useful symbolic stack trace). This
might be caused by some outdated packages which were installed on your system
at the time of the report:

libexiv2-11 version 0.22-oneiric~ppa2 required, but 0.22-2 is available

Please upgrade your system to the latest package versions. If you still
encounter the crash, please file a new report.

Thank you for your understanding, and sorry for the inconvenience!

Since then I installed anew and run the Quantal alpha packages, I haven't seen this happen (still have my old $HOME/.kde/ in case somebody is interested). AFAIAC this bug can be closed.
