This revised patch contained in the current zesty package switches the emphasis of the patch back to be a Unity specific (dash) issue as per the original LP for what it was created.
It does this by only running the delayed monitor sync part of the code if the desktop session itself is "ubuntu" i.e. for Unity. For all other desktop-environments (in the context of this bug) - budgie-desktop, the original vanilla upstream code is executed. For budgie-desktop this fixes various random segmentation and pointer issues that causes both a panel crash but more importantly whole X session crash. ** Patch added: "80_file_monitor_delayed.patch" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-menus/+bug/1631745/+attachment/4798545/+files/80_file_monitor_delayed.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-menus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1631745 Title: hostname-panel crashed with SIGSEGV in g_slice_alloc() Status in budgie-desktop: Fix Released Status in budgie-desktop package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in gnome-menus package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Testing in VirtualBox (xubuntu) Clean install of Release Candidate, updated and reboot.
