Public bug reported:
**Summary:**
GNOME Shell crashes with a segmentation fault (signal 11) when the user
manually clears a large number of notifications via the "Clear" button
in the notification panel.
**Steps to Reproduce:**
1. Open a terminal and send multiple notifications using the following
command repeatedly (Run the command several times to generate a high
number of notifications):
notify-send --app-name="Test" "Title" "Message"
2. Open the GNOME notification panel and scroll to view all the
generated notifications.
3. Click the "Clear" button to remove all notifications.
**Expected Result:**
Notifications are cleared without any crash or error.
**Actual Result:**
GNOME Shell crashes immediately with the following error message:
** (gnome-shell:21352): WARNING **: 11:10:35.813:
