Cats Plugin causes core dump on Arch Linux with Blender 2.82a and Open CL on AMD Polaris RX 580

[OzzyHelix]

trying to enable the cats plugin in blender on 2.82a causes blender to out right crash on Arch Linux on AMD RX 580 graphics cards.
trying to run anything newer than blender 2.82a core dumps and when trying to enable cats crashes. blender stopped supporting OpenCL render cycles so newer versions blender don't work
