Also, I'd like to see feedback from @vanvugt (as he has triaged a lot of gnome-shell crash reports), and Michael Hofmann <m...@mh21.de> as the original maintainer of indicator-multiload.

On bionic, apt install -y indicator-multiload 2. Run indicator-multiload lsb_release -d: Ubuntu 18.04.3 LTS gnome-shell version: 3.28.4-0ubuntu18.04.1 indicator-multiload version: 0.4-0ubuntu5 ## Actual result ## Whole desktop crashes. gnome-shell dies with SIGABRT, logging this assertion failure: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-shell/+bug/1787512 ## Expected result ## An applet appears, showing CPU/RAM load graphs. If not that -- an error is reported. If not that -- gnome-shell continues to work, rather than crashing and destroying everything unsaved I've been working on. The desktop should not crash because of one shitty program. Especially so if that program puts itself into ~/.config/autostart -- effectively rendering the OS dead to a simpleton user.
