Setting LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 works for me.

How long is after a while? Is it possible you are simply running out of memory? Is it possible for you to produce a backtrack of the crash?

[Bug 1243555] Re: Wireshark crashes with a SIGSEGV when starting a capture or opening a pcap file
No. It's most likely not a memory issue. It takes about 6 seconds for the crash. If you launch it from the console it takes a lot longer, because it prints a massive bunch of these Gobject errors to the console. While doing all this it eats almost 100% cpu time and only about 5% of my memory according to htop. I attached a few of the error messages. They are repeating a few hundred to thousand times. After that the segfault happens. I attached a backtrace and it looks totally strange. The stack looks screwed. As I said, it happens with a small (2kB) pcap file (from a trustworthy source) and when starting a capture. There shouldn't be much memory connsumption at that time. ** Attachment added: backtrace.txt https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireshark/+bug/1243555/+attachment/3888604/+files/backtrace.txt -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1243555 Title: Wireshark crashes with a SIGSEGV when starting a capture or opening a pcap file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireshark/+bug/1243555/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Based on the liboverlayscrollbar frames in the trace, this is probably related to bug #1208583. It might even be a duplicate, though the symptoms and stack trace are slightly different. Regardless, running export LIBOVERLAY_SCROLLBAR=0 should probably fix the issue. If it does I will reassign this to the overlay-scrollbar project. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1243555 Title: Wireshark crashes with a SIGSEGV when starting a capture or opening a pcap file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireshark/+bug/1243555/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1243555] Re: Wireshark crashes with a SIGSEGV when starting a capture or opening a pcap file
Hmm. I'm thinking about disabling overlay scrollbar from Wireshark itself at least on Debian/Ubuntu as a workaround for this bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1243555 Title: Wireshark crashes with a SIGSEGV when starting a capture or opening a pcap file To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireshark/+bug/1243555/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
