Package: gnome-shell Version: 48.2-3 Severity: normal X-Debbugs-Cc: sre4e...@free.fr
Dear Maintainers, gnome-shell currently doesn't show any useful feedback when starting an application that crashes immediately at startup (e.g. with a SIGSEGV, see #1108739) which is IMO a serious usability concern. An appropriate feedback here would be a desktop notification that the application crashed, with its display (desktop) name, process path, PID and cause (signal, exit code, OOM, eventually stderr) with value. Ideally (wishlist) clicking on the notification should open some UI that displays additional details and offers to restart the crashing app while generating a detailed crash report that could be used in a bug report. Then on Debian offering to start reportbug in a way that automatically attaches the report would be great.
