Interesting. I've been running pan on kde for well over a decade now.
Currently I'm running both kde-frameworks/plasma/apps and pan (built
against gtk2) from live-git, updated weekly or so (with an update just
finished but not yet rebooted or X/plasma restarted yet).
If pan was crashing I'd be complaining loudly and git-bisecting and/or
reverting the latest libs updates. It's not.
Tho FWIW I don't build with gkr or similar. AFAIK there's a known
problem with gtk2-based apps and at least recent gtk3 gnome-keyring. But
I run very little gtk3-based and don't have gnome-keyring of any sort
installed, thus my choice to build without it. And because I don't have
it installed, while I remember reading about the problem somewhere, I
don't remember the details, or even where I read it, tho it was probably
either here or in the gentoo general or kde-overlay git logs.
So it's certainly /possible/ to run a gtk2-based pan on kde, without the
crashing mentioned in that bug.
