clutter_actor_set_child_above_sibling error

[otonvm]

My log is full of these messages: (gnome-shell:802): Clutter-CRITICAL **: clutter_actor_set_child_above_sibling: assertion 'child->priv->parent == self' failed. They are created everytime something changes on screen like moving a window around. It says critical but the extension works fine anyway, it's just annoying when trying to follow journalctl.

I also suffer from this problem, have to disable the extension (simple-dock) as this error message is filling my logs (1-2 per second).

Are you using the last gnome versions (3.16.2 or 3.18)? I am not getting this kind of errors since last March. I am worried about fixing it because other problems (not staying at top) may arise.

Same problem here. had to disable the extension :( Fresh install of Fedora 22 x64 gnome-shell-3.16.3-1.fc22.x86_64

Hi,

I updated 'github' source to fix this bug, can you help me test it before uploading the new version to 'gnome-extensions' site?

Thanks

I am new here. I am seeing the same log entries: Clutter-CRITICAL **: clutter_actor_set_child_above_sibling: assertion 'child->priv->parent == self' failed

I just did a fresh install of debian jessie and am running gnome 3.14.

I also had to disable the simple-dock extension

Yes, this is fixed only for gnome 3.18
