Make Gnome Shell segfault on Wayland
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=788931
I have only your extension and everytime I add it, Gnome Shell segfaults with previous error in less than one hour...
Explanations on how to fix this in bug report.
I also got this crash. I enabled to show the clipboard content in the top bar.
st_label_set_text got called (label objet and new string "vala" existed) which internally called g_type_check_instance_cast but it tried to access the first part of a string "Sans" as pointer, thus segfaulting…
Btw, another report for the same trace is here, but with no activity yet: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/158
This crash seems to have deeper roots and is discussed at multiple places: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1714989 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1489554
It might have been partly solved by https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/merge_requests/115 but I'm running a gnome-shell version with this patch backported and it still happens to me from time to time.
Here are fixes from other extensions that trigger this bug: https://github.com/home-sweet-gnome/dash-to-panel/pull/263 https://github.com/codito/gnome-pomodoro/pull/321
This shouldn't be too hard to apply clipboard indicator. Don't have time to make PR atm but if nobody else does, I'll try in a maybe two weeks
