I think that was the clue that I needed - if it were easier to see what
versions of packages I had installed that shared a common source package
with kwin-x11 and plasma-desktop packages that may have helped me
identify and upgrade the related packages.
I was using an on-board Radeon 3200HD (RS780) when I first encountered
the problems and upgraded to a Radeon HD5450 (CEDAR) part way through.
Neither support OpenGL 3.1:
OpenGL vendor string: X.Org
OpenGL renderer string: Gallium 0.4 on AMD CEDAR (DRM 2.43.0, LLVM 3.7.1)
OpenGL core profile version string: 3.3 (Core Profile) Mesa 11.1.2
OpenGL core profile shading language version string: 3.30
OpenGL core profile context flags: (none)
OpenGL core profile profile mask: core profile
OpenGL core profile extensions:
OpenGL version string: 3.0 Mesa 11.1.2
OpenGL shading language version string: 1.30
OpenGL context flags: (none)
OpenGL extensions:
OpenGL ES profile version string: OpenGL ES 3.0 Mesa 11.1.2
OpenGL ES profile shading language version string: OpenGL ES GLSL ES 3.00
OpenGL ES profile extensions:

I gave this a try with using org.kde.breeze again after rebooting, then
set the window decoration back to Plastik and rebooted again, and
started fine.
When you said:
"This libkwin4-effect-builtins 5.4.3 I got this backtrace, I read the
backtrace and found the library name in it, this is how I found that it
was still at 5.4.3 on my system:"
that made me realise that the reportbug information for kwin-x11 was
incomplete in that reportbug only lists versions of the packages that
the reported package immediately depends on, and not the versions
installed of their dependencies and so on.
ldd $(which kwin_x11) reports a huge list of dependent libraries, but I
don't know of an existing command or script that will list the versions
of all dependent libraries/packages.
A command or script that lists the installed versions of all packages
based on a given source package would also be useful.
Thanks again for your help!
Arthur.
