Plasma 5.12.3 was working fine on Kubuntu 17.10 plus backports ppa

On upgrading to Kubuntu 18.04 beta, plasmashell crashes every login leaving an empty black screen.

The only clues I can see are:

1. /home is an NFS share

2. .xsession-errors contains:

KActivities: Database can not be opened in WAL mode. Check the SQLite version (required >3.7.0). And whether your filesystem supports shared memory

followed by multiple reports of:
KActivities: FATAL ERROR: Failed to contact the activity manager daemon

Does NFS support shared memory?

If I unmount /home and use a local /home then all seems fine.

sqlite -version says 2.8.17
