Thank you for generating the AppImage. I tried it and had no issues on both:
1. Ubuntu 20.10 using GNOME 3.38.1 (X11), gdb 9.2
2. openSUSE Tumbleweed 20201209 KDE Plasma 5.20.4, KDE Frameworks
5.76.0 and Qt 5.15.2, gdb 10.1

I have been using the KDevelop AppImages in Ubuntu for some time as I
was too impatient for Ubuntu to upgrade the repo. I haven't bothered
trying the Applmages before in openSUSE as I use KDE on that machine.

FWIW, since it was mentioned this bug was fixed but just not
officially released, I went ahead and installed KDevelop from
openSUSE's Unstable KDE extra repo (version 5.6.40 20201210) which I
believe is a nightly build. I've been using that for a few days
without any issues (no crashing, able to debug, etc.).
