If it helps, after an X server update on Sunday, my computer took almost fifteen minutes to start SDDM. Turns out that there is a problem with xserver-xorg-input-wacom stalling the whole thing. Notes on the X server PTS say that there's a transition under way to the next X server. It's possible that there are some inter-library breakages which may have broken my Wacom driver and may be breaking your KDE.
