Public bug reported:
Ever since I upgraded from Ubuntu GNOME 14.04 to Ubuntu GNOME 15.04,
I've had my entire desktop crash relatively quickly when using Spotify,
if I mess around with the client much. Just starting the client is no
problem, and it plays songs OK, but for a while whenever I clicked one
of my playlists it would immediately crash. I stopped using the client
for a while, but last week started using again and it was working for
these simple cases.
Today I started the client, picked a playlist, and grabbed the scrollbar
and dragged it all the way to the top; as I was dragging my desktop
crashed. In my home directory I see a gnome-shell core:

but I think this is just a symptom of the X server crashing; in my X
