Public bug reported:
gnome-shell crashes with signal 11 (segmentation fault) when I try to
lock the screen while a widget in the dock is in focus. The end result
is that the screen either does not lock, and gnome-shell reloads, or it
hangs (can move mouse, but mouse clicks or keyboard presses don't seem
to have any effect). Either way no screen lock occurs.
This is on a dual-screen setup, where I have the dock visible on both
screens.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open a terminal (or any app, terminal is just an example)
2) Open a new terminal with cntrl+N
3) Click on the terminal icon on the dock, so it shows both instances of the
terminal app
4) Try to lock the screen with super+L
5) Observe crash
Attached is the output of syslog at the exact moment the crash occurs.
