Hello Rainer,

I've looked at the upstream bug, and all the information you provided.  That's 
awesome -- I wish that every bug submitter would be as thorough as you!

It seems that, even with disabling the splash screen, you still experience the 
bug -- is that correct?

I can say that I'm not experiencing any such crash.  I created a new user to 
test from scratch.  I see the splash screen come and go, then the pop-up that 
offers to download the faces data files.  I can download them or not and it all 
works fine either way.

So it's puzzling.  I'm also using an x64 system, but I run on the "sid/
unstable" distribution so I have slightly different versions of the dependency 
packages.   Maybe it's worth attempting an upgrade of some or all of these to 
see if the problem goes away?

Perhaps start with libkf5configcore5, since the failing assert seems to be in 
that library:

	qt_assert_x(char const*, char const*, char const*, int) () at /lib/
x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5
