Is this a problem other Gnome users see as well?

I experience the same issue – happend some days ago already – and could only resolve it by “resetting” the complete dconf configuration (deleting folder ~/.config/dconf). I guess it is not necessary to delete all dconf configuration settings but I couldn’t figure out which one is the culprit. Maybe it is only a certain setting or an extension. However the Gnome shell still seems very instable and crashes when e. g. searching the dasboard for certain terms. It would be good to get to the root of these problems … Regards, Olli

Have you installed infinality fonts? They have incompatibility with harfbuzz and broke several packages. See here https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Infinality the banner and here https://gist.github.com/cryzed/e002e7057435f02cc7894b9e748c5671 Greetings. 2017-01-17 11:14 GMT+01:00 Tom Zander :

Good evening,

since yesterday my Gnome Shell crashes at start with the following message in the log: gnome-session-f[1207]: segfault at 0 ip 00007f01adab3cc9 sp 00007ffd261ce930 error 4 in libgtk-3.so.0.2200.6[7f01ad7d1000+6fa000]

Not sure if related.

My KDE session completely died twice in as many days. Which leads me back to the login prompt.

I have an unstable session on both X11 and Wayland since libharfbuzz was updated. I'm not saying that it is the problem, just that since that day my box is unstable. I had a notebook that is not updated since about two weeks and is stable on both X11 and Wayland sessions.

Did you guys manage to get Gnome working again. I was hoping for the ugrade to 3.24 but that didn't change anything:-O Here even GDM crashes. So is this some general issue with Gnome on Arch? KR Frank
