Description:
After upgrading Arch Linux system, KDE Plasma5 won't start.


Additional info:
* package version(s)
* config and/or log files etc.


Steps to reproduce:
1. Upgrade system and harfbuzz gets upgraded to harfbuzz-1.4.1-1.
2. Reboot and Plasma5 desktop won't start and shows a message something like "kdeinit5 could not be started. check your installation".

Fix by downgrading to harfbuzz-1.3.4-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz, and the KDE Plasma5 Desktop works just fine again.

It needs to be rebuilt against the new harfbuzz.
This task depends upon
