Source: gnome-session
Version: 3.16.0-1
Severity: important
Hi.
With 3.16.0-1 the well known "Oops something went wrong" grey screen
appears everytime when starting cinnamon.
But it should be noted that clicking "Ok" lets one actually continue
to cinnamon.
Downgrading to 3.14.0-3 fixes the issue.
Cheers,
Chris.
