I'm having this problem on a machine that uses google chrome, the gnome calculator and a corporate software. It's vanilla Ubuntu 20.04.
Syslog reaches 50g and the machine stops working (disk full). Exact same message as reported. Any way to stop the log until the problem is resolved? gnome-shell: 3.36.7-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 google-chrome-stable: 90.0.4430.93-1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1908429 Title: gnome-shell fills syslog: Attempting to run a JS callback during garbage collection. This is most likely caused by destroying a Clutter actor or GTK widget with ::destroy signal connected, or using the destroy(), dispose(), or remove() vfuncs. Because it would crash the application, it has been blocked. The offending callback was SourceFunc().
