I'm seeing this same crash in Kubuntu 22.04.1. In this case, the segfault in KIdleTime is causing Discover Notifier to crash when performing automatic updates (which relies on waiting for an idle timeout before starting). This means automatic updates essentially don't work in Kubuntu 22.04.1, since the thing that installs the updates crashes every time it runs.

See the related bug in KDE's bug tracker:

I believe the problem was fixed in version 5.93.0, but it would be up to Ubuntu to backport the patch to Jammy's 5.92.0 version. I don't know how likely that is to happen or what, if anything, I could do to help make that happen.
