Can you post the output of pacman -Qi ccache and pacman -Qi gmime`?
Also, remove the nouveau driver, probably not used on this hybrid system, but xf86-video-nouveau does not work at all since linux kernel 4.19.xx (use the much better maintained modesetting driver).

KaOS is not compatible with any other pacman based distro, you cannot use any other repos, that will always break your install.
This system is complete unsupported in KaOS, thus no bug report can be handled.

Both you and me know that the xorg oom crash is not impacted by me having ccache installed.
Pidgin could have an impact since it has a graphical component, and I can easily turn that application off and see what happens this night.
But if you are not interested in tying to make KaOs more stable, it is nothing I can do about it.
Expect hope that the error disappear withe the next update of Xorg and KDE.
