I experience this bug every time I try to run Gedit 3.20 on a regular Ubuntu 16.04 LTS install (without Ubuntu GNOME) with the GNOME3 and GNOME3 Staging PPAs for xenial.
I tried installing gnome-themes-standard and adwaita-icon-theme-full and switched my theme to Adwaita but it didn't make a difference. ** Information type changed from Private to Public ** Summary changed: - gedit crashed with SIGSEGV in gtk_menu_button_set_popover() + gedit 3.20 crashes in Unity with SIGSEGV in gtk_menu_button_set_popover() ** Also affects: gedit (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gedit in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1576323 Title: gedit 3.20 crashes in Unity with SIGSEGV in gtk_menu_button_set_popover() Status in Ubuntu GNOME: Confirmed Status in gedit package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: No update avilable ProblemType: Crash DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 Package: gedit 3.20.1-0ubuntu1~xenial2 [origin: LP-PPA-gnome3-team-gnome3-staging] ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-21.37-generic 4.4.6 Uname: Linux 4.4.0-21-generic i686 ApportVersion: 2.20.1-0ubuntu2 Architecture: i386 CurrentDesktop: Unity Date: Thu Apr 28 11:34:56 2016 ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/gedit InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-04-27 (1 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Beta i386 (20160323) ProcCmdline: gedit /home/username/Downloads/noname.txt SegvAnalysis: Segfault happened at: 0xb693a17f <gtk_menu_button_set_popover+31>: mov (%esi),%edx PC (0xb693a17f) ok source "(%esi)" (0x00000000) not located in a known VMA region (needed readable region)! destination "%edx" ok SegvReason: reading NULL VMA Signal: 11 SourcePackage: gedit StacktraceTop: gtk_menu_button_set_popover () from /usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libgtk-3.so.0 ??
