I rephrase the steps to make it clearer:

step 1)
$ . setup-kf5-env
$ eval `dbus-launch`
$ ksnapshot

step 2)
Click the ksnapshot button "Send To...".
Wait a moment.
[NEW: crash 1, see below]
the Send To menu appears
[NEW: three more crashes, see below]
Choose gwenview (or kolourpaint or Gnome Image Viewer) from the menu

step 3)
The "sent to" application (e.g. gwenview) is started (currently with no file due to the
bug you found).

After the dbus is fixed, the four crashes mentioned above are all kded5 which is crashing
4 times, see screenshot http://wstaw.org/m/2014/12/29/plasma-desktopGi1965.png. I don't
know if this is due to the ksnapshot bug so I propose to wait until the ksnapshot bug is
fixed and then I try again.

Best regards

Gregor
