Package: libkf5idletime5 5.92.0-0ubuntu1

I'm seeing the same segfault and symptoms without using any backports, after upgrading from Lubuntu 21.10 to 22.04.1 LTS. A third user has also reported the crash after a similar upgrade on an upstream bug: https://github.com/lxqt/lxqt/discussions/2219#discussioncomment-3285033 That bug includes developer comments for Arch, which would imply a bug in libkf5idletime5 5.92.0-0ubuntu1.

Steps to reproduce:
0) upgrade Lubunutu from 21.10 to 22.04.1
1) in Power Management Settings, go to Idle, tick 'Enable Backlight Change'. Set idle time to 00:30 (30 seconds), and close.
2) wait 10 seconds

Expected behaviour:
Backlight dims until keystroke or pointer movement, then returns to previous value, and lxqt-powermanagment continues to function.

Experienced behaviour:
Backlight dims, segmentation fault and icon disappears from Status Notifier. Backlight remains dimmed on keystroke and requires manual brightening. Eventually popup that 'Power Management has crashed too many times.'
