This bug is not a new one, and seems to be stalled as far as a fix, if
it is a sufficient workaround (are there any cases where this doesn't
workaround the problem?) It seems that usability would be key, and that
workaround fixes it on several of my machines, I know that is slightly
limited, but seems like a very viable workaround.  It doesn't seem that
collecting any further data is going to result in a solution that will
come around any time soon, because as stated, this isn't new.  Perhaps I
missed the previous reasons, I did breeze through them, and mostly it is
talk of using something different (parcelite klipper, etc.) those aren't
even workarounds, they are abandonment.  I believe that actually the
times it didn't work are not related to the glipper startup crashing
bug, but rather a memory limitation type bug.  I too have crashed
glipper in this way, however playing around with the settings has
stopped that problem.  I'm not a programmer, so it is only my
observations and opinions  take it for what it is worth.  I think end
userability ranks higher than attempting to milk a dry cow for more
information.  The majority of users (of which I venture to guess don't
even visit this page) just delete it and install parcelite or klipper
without a second thought.  Don't take this as a reproach, it is just my
opinion from one of the end users.
