Crash on Wayland
Hi,
when trying to activate the terminal via hotkey on a Wayland session, I get the following notification:

Works fine on X however...
confirm... it seems some kind of incompatibility with gjs package...
Log from journald: kernel: gjs[4030]: segfault at 18 ip 00007fa4c22a0c3c sp 00007ffee790cab0 error 4 in libgdk-3.so.0.1800.5[7fa4c221e000+c6000] gnome-session[1347]: Gjs-Message: JS LOG: error: Drop Down Terminal ended abruptly: You can activate the debug mode to nail down the issue systemd-coredump[4040]: Process 4030 (gjs) of user 1000 dumped core.
Fedora 23, Gnome 3.18.1, Wayland here and it seems to work. I get no crash. Does this happen randomly or every time?
Yes, happens every time...
Up-to-date GNOME installation on Archlinux:
$ pacman -Q | grep gnome
gnome-2048 3.18.2-1
gnome-common 3.18.0-1
gnome-control-center 3.18.2-1
gnome-desktop 1:3.18.2-1
gnome-session 3.18.1.2-1
gnome-settings-daemon 3.18.2-1
gnome-shell 3.18.3-1
gnome-shell-extensions 3.18.2-1
...
Same here. Arch Linux / Gnome 3.18.2.
Creating a new user as pointed out by some guy does not work; I've just tried it out. Probably just forgot to switch to Wayland when logging in. (GDM defaults to X session when creating a new user on my system)
Just for your info, as of today, there is no crash when using Wayland and Gnome 3.22 (Arch Linux). The only issue I have is that the Terminal uses 100% height instead of the configured 80%, but that is not that critical.
I have this problem as well. In worse. I can't have it at all, even in a gnome xorg session. It happened since a recent arch update. Before that, it worked fine...
