The code in question is this: /* Try registered device factories */ factory = nm_device_factory_manager_find_factory_for_link_type (plink->type); if (factory) { gboolean ignore = FALSE;
device = nm_device_factory_new_link (factory, plink, &ignore, &error); if (!device) { if (!ignore) { nm_log_warn (LOGD_HW, "%s: factory failed to create device: %s", plink->name, error->message); g_clear_error (&error); } return; } } The crash is happening when error->message is accessed in the call to nm_log_warn. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1496434 Title: network-manager crash on boot on krillin/devel-proposed Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: current build number: 198 device name: krillin channel: ubuntu-touch/devel-proposed/krillin.en network-manager: Installed: 1.0.4-0ubuntu3 network-manager crashes and keeps re-spawning, making the device unusable.
