Dear Maintainer, hello Benjamin, the core seems at least related to the "Too many open files" lines. Unfortunately I cannot get the whole backtrace (see below). The crash seems to be the same as already reported in #851498, which got forwarded to upstream in [1].
I guess in "Gnome - Settings - Privacy - Purge Trash & Temoprary Files", by default "Automatically purge Temporary Files" is off, so this might not show up by default. There is another upstream issue about the "Permission denied" messages in [2], Ubuntu downstream in [3], Fedora [4]. For the missing files - got the partition mounted to e.g. /tmp/fsa/20191015-204501-00010385-00 ? If then gsd-housekeeping walks there and finds old files in that directory would it might delete them?
