Plasmoid 1) fails to initialize its script 2) Crashes Plasma

The plasmoid is named Webget 0.6.1. It is alternatively producing -- when run -- 1) a script initialization error message and 2) a Segmentation fault. When I try to install it, it never goes beyond a square-black box, with a red 'X' inside it.

Associated error, when Plasmoid loads and runs:
[ X ] This object could not be created for the following reason:
    Script initialization failed.

At one point, I saw a 'KDE Crash Handler' window that said, "The packages containing debug information for the following application and libraries are missing:
    /usr/bin/plasma-desktop

Now that I have the debugging packages loaded, the KDE crash handler isn't running -- I'm just seeing the script initialization error. Right now, I'm back to the point where I was getting the error message #1.

??? I would like to know how to trigger the 'Crash Handler' so I could see the debugging log.

??? Could someone please take a look at this Plasmoid? If I'm missing packages/dependencies, I'd like to learn which ones and how to correct it.

It's OK to delete this thread.

I've been working on the problem further, and have put together a more complete post in another area.
I think the additional info in that post will more likely lead to a resolution.

I thought a fresh start would be better than appending this thread.

Again, sorry to bother the moderators, but I see no button on the forum to delete a post, and :< do not want to double-post -- although the question has been reworked to such an extent, that it's not really a duplicate ...
