** Description changed: + [ Impact ] + + If an app doesn't implement startup notifications correctly (but + declares them supported in the .desktop file) then gnome-shell might + think the app is still starting for 15-20 seconds after it launches. If + a garbage collection run happens in this time, or you simply log out, + then gnome-shell will crash in shell_app_dispose() + https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/1abaaf46c8b70b1fc87278bec9e4d2cefc15daaf https://errors.ubuntu.com/problem/352b5b0892c4a5f7cd9b445d91d146119a2837e9 + + [ Test Plan ] + + WIP + + [ Where problems could occur ] + + Only shell_app_dispose is being modified so the only places that could experience a change in behaviour are: + * during logout; or + * during a garbage collection pass, which can happen at random times. + + The worst (maybe only) scenario would be for the fix to introduce + another crash in the same location, at the same time as the old crash. + + [ Original description ] Running MATLAB 2023b with Matlab Connector installed suddenly crashed gnome-shell and returned to gdm. Has been running fine w/o the Connector but not sure it's related.
